ive been told i can get away with a quart of un-reduced because then i can make that 2 quarts of reduced...but im trying to do a whole car minus,hood,roof,trunk lid.just the exterior.not doing jams or bay.

I used a gallon of non reduced product for my entire car, and still had some left over. You might be able to get away with 2 quarts, but its going to be close.

took me a gallon not reduced to do my whole car too. 2 quarts is gonna prolly only get you maybe a coat and a half on the whole car.

ok.im thinking i might just go ahead and do the fenders/bumper instead of the whole car..
i found a quart for $132 and clear is $52.from paintscratch.com

sweet, is this for the teg?

 

[INJEN78]

nope.i though alot about it and the integra wasnt going to be a reliable DD..being turbo,running dsm 450's and the clutch/flywheel setup it woulda been a bitch to DD and run fine with gas prices..so i got a 95 civic..

but im having a hard time figuring things out..
the color is bg33p3(says on the door tag) but the car is dated 9/94..which the 94's dont come in b633p3..so idk wtf is going on with that situation.

Do you know anyone who has a body shop? Have them buy it for you with their discount.
