I doubt its 7.9 gallons thats alot of paint!

I think its somthing like 3 pints...then you use reducer and end up with six pints. With reducer each pint makes two! You might have a lil bit leftover depending how you spray! But this is just what i have seen!

Soooo get your a$$ to a body shop and ask!

Dude, 8 gallons would cover a semi-truck and have 5 gallons leftover. LOL!

He's expletiveing with you.

1 gallon of base, and 1 gallon of clear. It'll have a quart left over of each if you don't screw up. That's for a complete in and out paint job.
