Ok so I'm gonna be painting my car, I mostly wanna take care of some damaged areas to both the quarter panels and passenger fender but i'll probably end up just spraying the whole car since theres plenty of rock chips at the front bumper and hood and other nicks here and there, I got the code for my paint color 3L2 i'm just wondering how much paint will I need and how much clear coat? thanks for any advise
