Icon3 Body work question

I am almost through with fixing my 1990 Honda CRX after a guy clipped my front right passenger side. I am gonna have to get my two fenders painted and the passenger door. I'm going back with the original R-72P paint. How much paint should it take a quart, half gallon?

Yeah I think a quart of "unreduced" base would be good. Same for clear but make sure its a quart of unreduced or you might run out.
