will the 500 ml cover the whole car? and how can it be applied? what other products do i need to apply to the surface before applying?

that should keep someone busy for a while :)

I was doing RHF panel and lower beaver ( hehehehe) panel, soz always giggle there, and some inner guard and used about 1/2 the bottle.
i apply it with a 25ml varnish brush ( cheaper and only use once)

This stuff smells bad so shoodn't be used in an enclosed cupboard

as to other products it depends on if you are painting now or later.
NOW: spray your etch primer straight on, after RC is dry, then apply fav color
LATER: I spray cheap/aresol primer on it when dry, but not a heavy coat of primer, just enuf to cover it.
My father left this stuff exposed on the trailer outside in the weather and it survived quite well surprisingly.

I remember and old spray painter friend of mine, He use to Rub the sanding block on an ordinary bar of soap while sanding a bare matal panel and then just wipe panel with a chamois. Stays nice and rust free for ages. Unless you park the vehicle near the ocen for ther view !
