Hi.

Not had really any experience spraying.

How much (in L) of paint do you need for an entire car respray?

How much (in L) of laquer do you need " " " " " ?

How much (in L) of activator do you need " " " " " ?

-Going off those figures, how much would you need for just sideskirts and arches? (x2 pairs)

Thanks
