Re: Paint codes and amounts

depending on how much of the car is resealed, 1.5 quarts will get you around the car. 1.5 quarts is 3 sprayable.

PPG 8774 runs about 98 a pints. So figure 150 for paint. Depending on the type of clear you want. You can buy a kit anywhere from 68 to 300. Just buy a gallon of it. The more you buy the cheaper it is.

If you need any specific info shoot me a PM I own a bodyshop in Col. Oh
