Paul Barrett Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Inside and out, underneath? Clear over base or solid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanMc Posted December 16, 2018 Author Share Posted December 16, 2018 Hi Paul, it would be to just paint the outside and a solid paint. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bris jas Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Ian, if your painting it in 2k your need around 2 1/2 litres. Normal mixing ratios are 2-1. ie 2 parts paint to 1 part hardener and depending on spray set up and temperature 10% thinners. This will give you around 3, 3/4 litres mixed. This allows for 3 good coats and a good flat and polish. If its cellulose i think the mixture is 50/50, best check with supplier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
