   depends how many coats of each.
   
   but primer i would give 3 coats of high build so about 3.5 ltr's + hardener + 500ml thinner
   
   black base coat 3 coats - 3 ltr's + 2ltr base coat thinners
   
   clear coat 2-3 coats - 3 ltrs + 1 ltr thinner + 1ltr hardener
   
   that's what i used to do a 106 last week including shuts and boot and under bonnet. if you use less you wouldn't get a good depth of gloss.
   
   sinemaster is pretty good if your up north or supertune is amazing and always happy to help.
   
   if your using waterbourne paint then scrap everything i said as its completely different and changes from supplier to supplier so not worth me telling you.
