Re: Firewall painting

I have only painted a few vehicles, but the paint quantities sound about right for moderate to good coverage. I tend to lay more primer and paint on than the professionals so, I might need more of the primer and base...the clear amount would be good for me though. I can't comment on the price since I have not done BC/CC in many years. If it where just the firewall in the engine bay...a quart each would be plenty, but, depending on the extent in which you take the cab interior would determine the amount needed. Consider doing the cab interior first with the 2 qt each purchase. That way you'll be able to gage whether you need more for the firewall.

I have had good luck in the Paint and Bodywork forum here from some of the more intelligent ones in that arena. It's worth posting there too.
