What quantities do you use when mixing paint?
Goona start spraying using my compressor, at mo only looking at something very small (mirrors or Spolier etc, just to get some idea and perfect things, however i have no idea on what i need,
The colour i need is diamond white, and i know i need ot mix with thinner but what raito is that and also how you do youget the colour shade the same as the car? is it simply mulitple coats till it looks ok?
and lastly is there anthing i should know about laquering ?
cheers for any help

well for the right mix of paint and thinners speak to the professionals ie your paint supplier they will be able to tell you the mix ratio and as for the laquar you dont need any on diamond white as its not metalic paint

Normally 50:50 for cellulose primer and 2-pack basecoat. Don't attempt to use 2-pack lacquer as it's very bad for you. Your paint supplier will have 1k lacquer on the shelf.
