I wanted to get some info on re-painting my ruby pearl 95 zenki. I have no clue how many gallons or quarts of what I will need... If someone could lead me into the right direction with how much of each I will need, it would be greatly appreciated.

I know I will need base,clear, and reducer perhaps?

I'm painting the car ruby pearl again as well.

Have you tried the people that work at the paint store?
yeah, I know it's a far fetch concept but it's so crazy it just might work

^as mano said go to your local paint shop. They will let you know everything you need.

It won't be cheap if you want it to look good and last. It's usually best to just pay someone who knows what they are do it.

you are going to need atleast 2 quarts non reduced paint, 2 quarts of reducer, primer surfacer, primer sealer, 1 gallon of clear and a quart of harder for the clear. depending on what color and the brand of paint, this is going to cost around 400-700$. depending on the temperature that your spraying in , you will need to get the correct reducer and hardeners . the paint supply guys will ask you this question. 65 - 80 degrees you will need a medium reducer/ hardener, 65 and below( i would not recommend painting in this cold of temp) will will need a fast reducer/hardener, 80+ you will need a slow reducer/hardener. if your spraying this yourself, i would recommend buying a nice hvlp gravity feed gun. if you have any other questions feel free to pm me
