I've been considering having ago at respraying my car myself with my Dad who has some experience of respraying. I've been in touch with a Company called carpaint.co.uk and they have given me a estimate on the paints that i will need.

Seems reasonable, you can spray a car with less, I probably wouldn't use that my primer that said when I sprayed the MG I ran out of primer half way through the car and had to do a made run to get some more.

Would of thought you need half the amount of paint. Don't forget, with thinners/hardener it will double up the paint anyway. I use 600/800 grit for primer. Need plenty of 1500/2000 for those odd runs & between top coats On 19th Jan, 2010 wil_h said:

mind i went to buy some paint tuther day and was told to fek off, unless you are a registered business they will not sell 2pac or cellulose paint to you, you got to have an approved oven now :(:(;( and to make sure you order the paint and they deliver it to you.
