There has been a lot of talk about paint recently, how much to use, what type etc. My car is big, but to give everyone an idea, just on the body and doors, no front end yet, we have used 10ltrs of primer + 2.5ltrs of activator and 15ltrs of black with about 5% thinners, 2 pack and about 10 cans of stone chip, so thats about 2/3 of the car so far, the paint is UPOL and its about £15 a ltr. My painter says celly should be 50/50, if anyone needs anymore info,let me know, he has been restoring cars for 40 years Cheers Ken

So 10ltrs of 2 pack and 5-6 ltrs of base and 5-6ltrs of laquer isnt far of for a POP.. looks good buddy.
