Paint Question?
I would like to know how many quart or gallon of paint would be enough to paint a 1993 Civic Hatch? Im getting my car paint by a local shop but he said if i want to get the paint he'll just used it and i could saved some money. So im here trying to get some info. I hope u guys could help me out.
thanks .

Re: Paint Question? (GOT2BEFAST)
I paint cars and whatnot, but it took about 1 gallon to do about 4 coats on a Civic hatch with the whole engine bay and interior floors done. The whole car got a complete color change but the paint that I used, House of Kolor is mixed with a 1 to 1 ratio. So if you need a gallon of paint then you need a gallon of reducer, I think the number I used was cp161. But that was a complete change over with a lot of coats to make the car pretty nice looking, then if you use a base coat/clear coat you have to have a clear to bring out the shine and the tru color. Good luck
