Well, people always say that 3 litres of paint is enough, but how they manage that is beyond me, i used 10 litres of primer, and 9 litres of topcoat on our woody estate, which also meant using about 50 litres of thinners in total....!! That may sound like a lot, but it depends on the finish you can get with your gun and spraying ability. We had to do a LOT of cutting back, so maybe thats where all the paint went...

Hehe, nope, but i used a very good spray mask....!!!
Honestly, i couldn't believe it when i saw the stack of empty cans that was gathering round the side of the garage...!! Don't forget you need quite a bit for cleaning out the spray gun, unless you buy gunwash, but i think the price is pretty similar....
