ok, well i have decided to paint my car myself..and i need a few questions answered.

the colors i have to decided between
1. voltage blue met - year 2000 honda
color chip formula 5635
mfg pnt cd b97m-s

2.vivid blue pearl - year 2003 honda
color chip formula 6176
mfg pnt cd b520p-u

now i have a 94 hatch, i plan on painting the car obviously, and the door jambs and engine bay.

now how much paint do you think i will need? 2 gallons? and what hardner and reducer? how much of each? how much clear? what are the mix ratios? i planned on spraying as a acrylic enamel. are there are pros or cons between the colors, as in spray technique?

all of my information was located from this web site..

any and all help would be greatly appreciated!! thanks in advance!

 

1 gallon will be good enough should make around 1 1/2 gallon after mixing it with the reducer tell them you want a kit will make it alot more easy on you

 

so 1 gallon should be enough to cover the entire car and bay? how many coats do u think? im trying to make this paint last.. planning on spending the money.. not like those fools with the $50 paint job lol

 

fools? have you seen some of those jobs? some of them are really good.

don't be so jugemental and grow up with the name calling.

 

I just did a color change on my brothers EG. Painted it Midori Green. Complet change, interior,bay evrything and use a almost 2 gallond sprayable. And use about a gallon of clear. I used PPG products

if you buy ppg deltron paint 1 gallon should be enough the mixing ratio is 1 to 1 so that will give you 2 gallons
