thanks guys [thumbzup] It took 16 cans. Somebody had used brush paint at one paint, but it wasn't CARC. The spray stuck wonderfully to the CARC, but on the brush stuff it took 3 coats. Took 16 cans total, mostly because I haven't done the axles, and I did the frame, springs, inner fenders and mudguards black. So, had I done all that you're looking at about 24 cans I'd say. I'm not happy with the spray cans versus a spray gun job, but it was quick and easy and as long as it's not in the direct sunlight you can't see the variations in gloss, in other words from spraycans you can't get a nice even sheen across wide areas.
