Hey Dave how much limon twist will you use to get it all painted?

[mopardave]

3 gallons of paint is what we had mixed. I expect we will use a little over 2 1/2 to get everything painted inside and out. I'll keep the pics coming as we go. thanks all

That looks superb Dave!!!! When you say 2 1/2 gallons do you mean base and clear combined, just base or is it single stage?  Man that is gonna be a mean motor scooter, cannot wait to see more

it is gonna be cool, the 2 1/2 is for the base coat only. we are averaging about 5 coats of base so far. not sure on the clear yet i would expect 4-5 coates on that
