Dumb preplanning questions. I would like to follow many of your leads. Currently, Woody. In painting my 48 and save a ton of money. I stole that from Woody's response. lol

It would appear that each piece (excluding the cab) is about the same size. I mean door, fender (front or rear) bed side. How do you know how much to mix up so not much is wasted? If you are painting multiple pieces do you just multiply the amount by the number of pieces?

As for the cab, since it is big, do you paint it in parts since it is easy to paint the sides (front, back, and sides) then flip it on a side and do the top? Or do you get out the ladder?

How long do you have to get the paint out of the gun after you mix it?

After the paint job. Do you put thinner in the gun and shoot it into a bucket for clean-up? Do you ever use the liners for the gun bucket?

Thanks for any advice or comments
