How much paint to do a car?
Hey guys I just got my car over to the body shop and I was going to supply the paint to make sure as it's a custom color. I have a 71 Grand Prix and will be using a 2-stage paint job. How much paint do I need 1-2 gallons? and how many coats? I had my truck done at Maaco and I would be lucky if they gave me 2 coats!
Is there a good, better, best? When it comes to t the clear coat? I have seen clear coats start peeling after 5 years and I am wondering if there is a different quality clear or if it application application-dependent?
