I have convinced a local guy I've met through car events and whatnot to paint my newly rebuilt car (was a salvaged junker). The only catch is it has to be on his offtime and all supplies must be purchased by me.

I just mainly need to know a rough amount of how much paint I need to purchase, it is a color change so all jams and motor will be done as well.

I'm going with HOK Candy Apple Red with Flake.

How much primer, paint, flake, sealer, and clear coat will I need to purchase roughly?

These are the supplies I'm getting.

Primer - http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=5030&itemType=PRODUCT&RS=1&keyword=epoxy%2Cprimer

Sealer - http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=5036&itemType=PRODUCT&RS=1&keyword=HOK13

Base - http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemType=PRODUCT&RS=1&itemID=5045&keyword=8512ZP+001+QT

Flake - http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemType=PRODUCT&RS=1&itemID=5062&keyword=8542+001+6OZ

Clear - http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemType=PRODUCT&RS=1&itemID=5052&keyword=8519ZP+001+QT

Shouldn't the guy who is painting your car know how much to buy? I would think so....
