[QUOTE="dixie_boysles, post: 159661, member: 2609"] I wish I could be of better help about thinning it, but seeing as I didn't thin it, my friend does that owns the bodyshop I sprayed it in thinned it for me each time. But to answer your qestion, yes, u do have to thin it to spray it. If you go to Parker coatings site and click on "Duck Boat Paint" it will give u a Material Data Sheet for the paint in PDF format that gives u all the directions for the paint. IIRC, you have to thin it 15 percent or something like that. Also, we put three coats on and I still have about half a gallon or so. That's just outside and partial inside. I'd say put three to four coats on and also let it bake in son as the paint is still pretty soft (I've already caused a few marks in it). Other than this it sprayed great. Even my friend said the paint was pretty thick. [/QUOTE]
