Styling Painting from new

[lost_aussie]

Hi,
thinking of painting the entire car from plain metal - dissasembling the whole thing. Anyone know how many litres of pain this will require (also what undercoat/primer should I use).

Also, are Brown Brothers the best people to buy paint from?

We painted most of the car (except the bottom which we kinda did) and we used about 3.5 ltrs of DeBeers 2K with a 2K primer. We also like to use an etch primer under the paint and a rubber stone chip coating along the sills and under the car.

You should be safe with 4ltrs.
