weight of paint ?
I am about to take delivery of an MB339, which is in original colour from the mould it is 74 " wingspan ..Now if I paint it using dulon type car paint, (sprayed ) has anyone a rough idea of what weight it will add? Assuming a light undercoat, enough paint to provide military colour scheme and a flat clear....how many ounces of paint , from someone's experience would that add .
I have never done the calculation before, but no doubt some of you will have
Thanks
Grant

RE: weight of paint ?
Colors you choose will also make a difference.Some colors cover in 1-2 coats,some colors may take 5-6 coats.Military colors should be your quicker covering colors though.
