Default Question about paint

Hi guys. Im gonna be purchasing some monstaliner later this week and just wanted to see how much Ill need. I just want to paint the front bumper, fender flares, rocker panels, and rear bumper. After reading that the gallon can do an entire tub I think all I need is the quart size, but im still unsure. Just want a second say in how much I might need. Thanks!

I can tell you from experience you are going to need to apply at least two coats. Get the gallon and if you have any left over (un-mixed of course) you will have it on hand for touch-ups. Also, buy an extra roller or two or get the kit with the extra rollers and sponges.

And make sure you wear gloves and use good painters tape.A cheap easy way to cover the wheels is use big trash bags.Jack up the jeep and slip the trash bag open over the wheel.
