Default Paint

Does anyone know how many Gallons or Liters you need to paint a car, cause I am kind of tight on the money.

How much does nighthawk black pearl metallic paint cost?

well what are u painting? and as for the price of the nighthawk stuff go to your paint shop and ask paint supplies change everyday. I dont think you know what your gettin yourself into here. You need catalysts, hardeners, primer, basecoats, clears... no to mention any dent repair theres alot that goes into this.

if you wanna paint a honda civic usually a gallon will suffice maybe a little more but i would go to a reputable paint shop and find out.

Your best bet is to go into a local paint retailer and ask paint and supplies varies. I would say no more than a gallon, but even that varies with how many coats you want
