 |
|
The list has been fairly quiet lately, so I thought I'd ask one of those
questions that must be burning in everyone's mind: How much paint (in gallons)
does it take to do a 601XL?
I realize I also need primer, thinner, etchant, etc, but if I knew how much
paint some of you needed, I might be able to factor those other numbers. Of
course, if someone happens to have those at hand, I wouldn't mind real numbers
there, either.

I used a white undercoat on the entire airplane. It seems like it took 5-6 qts. Kirker is a great cost / quality compromise. http://www.autobodytoolmart.com/ultra-glo-acrylic-urethane-enamel-paints-c-895.aspx There are more expensive paints out there and perhaps they come with higher quality but in the end you'll end up doing it a 2nd time due to upgrades. At least that has been my experience.
