Re: How Much Paint?
Depends on the color you're shooting and how well it covers. The white paint job I did years ago took about 2 1/2 quarts, still had plenty left over to paint a boat trailer. The current charcoal metallic, I needed the full gallon. Think that was 3 layers over the whole car. Only bought a quart of pewter for the ground fx, still have plenty left over.
