Default Painted lowers = how many oz's of paint?

Thanks


For those of you who have painted your lowers, how many oz's of paint did it take you.

If your car used clear, include that also if you can.


thanks

For the lowers and abt lip on my B6 1.8T:

1 pint can of DuPont ChromaBase

2 pint cans of PPG DuraCryl Clear

The paint is a 1:2 mix with laquer thinner. The Clear is a 1:2/1:3 (depending of consistency and temp) mix with laquer thinner. This is also for use with a gun. Note: Use a water/oil trap in your air line and wear a mask, cause I got really sick. Everything cost me about $150 and the results are great. Save a few hundered. TAKE YOUR TIME.
