if your painting with a gun then you'll be fine with a litre of primer, half litre to litre of base and litre of clear, then obviously you need your thinners and hardener, about 2 litres of thinners will be enough and then hardener which usually comes with the primer and then you'll need around half litre for your clear

do u put half a litre off thinners in a litre of clear ??

no i don't, but its always handy to have too much than not enough, and thinners always comes in handy to clean your gun out

and i haven't even mentioned half a litre of thinners in litre of clear
