I say maybe 2-3 cans depending how you layer it. Yeah I have used it, good stuff IMO. It all depends on how you spray it and its coverage, plus what your spraying on.

I want to do a project car in that color... well, at some point...

If I had a corrado it would be my color of choice.

so simple but so awesome, So I hope that is what you will be painting :icon_rule:
