Title: Painting question
Post by: Joe Sull on January 12, 2014, 02:48:01 PM
Can I get away with painting my whole bike with one quart of paint mixed with the pint of hardener? I want to put on 2 coats. My son says he painted a truck with a quart but he used enamel and a reducer.

I'm talking about the frames and all the body parts.

I would say no, you should probably get two quarts. When painting flat panels of a vehicle you can get a lot of coverage, whereas where you paint the stick figure of the frame you are going to have a lot of waste.
