Gallons of Aerothane needed?

[Jim Herpst]

Using Sunvalley Ivory (AEROTHANE) over the silver coat. How many Gallons should I need to shoot the entire plane ? Trim will be traditional style with leading edges and diamond and stripes in Insignia Blue

Polyfiber says 6 for Aerothane and 4 for Ranthane. It'll depend a lot on your gun, and technique.

I have heard six for Polytone. Using Aerothane so should be less HOWEVER yes technique is key here. Many variables indeed!

I just bought 7 gallons of Aerothane for my Rearwin. 6 was recommended but since I had it color matched instead of a standard color I decided to get an additional gallon just in case. This was a test of my N-number masks and and different trim colors (Santa Fe vs Tennessee red). Base is a 2020 Jeep color called Gobi.

Aerothane coverage sucks over silver. I would apply white or ivory polytone prior to aerothane for better coverage and truer color.
