I used 4 of the smallest size cans to do 2 coats on my Haynes chassis. Apparently it's best to work from the small cans as it goes off quickly once a tin is opened. They sold a 6 pack when I did mine.

I used POR Blackcote in aerosols to finish it, used 3 of those I think.

^^ what he said - get the 6 pack of small cans + what ever you preferred top coat is.
that way any leftovers will be in in unopened cans for any touch ups / future projects
