Hi all,
I am getting ready to start spraying my coupe and curious what product quantities are needed. It seems there's a lot more surface to cover on the coupe vs the roadster. The list of products and quantities below was aggregated from the following thread and worked out well when I painted my Mk3 last summer: https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/show...Work-and-Paint . I found this to be a superb "primer" for anyone considering taking on bodywork and paint. As always, thanks for your help!

Polyester High Build:
  • 2 gallons polyester high build
  • Slicksand
  • Three coats


Primer/Surfacer

  • 1 gallon 2K urethane primer surfacer + catalyst + reducer
  • PPG JP202
  • Three coats


Urethane Sealer

  • 2 quarts urethane sealer + catalyst + reducer
  • PPG JP33x (depending on color)
  • One full coat


Basecoat

  • 1 gallon basecoat + reducer
  • if doing stripes you'll need a quart of that color - I don't have the guts to try stripes yet
  • PPG JBP
  • Three coats


Clear

  • 1 gallon of clear + hardener and reducer as applicable
  • PPG DCU2021
  • Thee coats - I recall have a lot left over from my cobra, maybe I went too light? I think I used a bit more than half.
