I'm picking up the Fallen Hero's Dream Ride frame from the sandblaster tomorrow. It goes straight to the body shop that will paint it. I'm going to have them use 2 coats of epoxy primer and 2 top coats of Eastwood's ceramic chassis black. Any ideas on how much paint I should purchase?

A quart of ceramic black should be enough. It gets cut a little to spray. But, why not just check with the body shop?

Thanks. They are donating the work. They said they have never painted a frame before, so I thought there might be better information on here from people that have.

I hate when people leave their brains at home. Seriously when did critical thinking and customer service go out the window? How about common sense and striving to go the extra mile? Idiots, surrounded by idiots it tell you.
