Lomax & Troopy
I'm taking soon the mission of painting my 75 series Troopy myself. I'm painting it Cat Yellow, as I have been offered free paint, primer etc. pretty good deal, what I need to know is how much paint/ primer will I need. And how much should I thin it?

Some useful info here, if you're using acrylic.

I have resprayed a few cars/4WD vehicles.
Primer: about 2 litres.
Top coat: FJ40-4litres, FJ60- 6 litres.
Mixing: 40% paint 60% thinners.
I don't know much about 2-pack, other than it's potentially more dangerous than acrylic. (
home use)
Prepare properly, and use an anti-slilicon additive to your paint.
Good luck.
Bob
