yeah i agree with jams amounts but i doubled the primer filler coz i spilt a tin on the floor :x
and i also sprayed nearly 4lts of clear top coat over my acrylic colour aswell. But i used so much clear coz the pearl colours were actually mixed into 1/2 of it!

Any imperfection will show up.Iit will take a lot of work and a huge amount of time to do it right. A good way to waste paint is trying to short cut the preperation and paint is not cheap.
