How much paint?

I could be wrong but if you are going to paint a metallic you will have to go base/clear. I just ordered the paint for my Barracuda and I ordered a gallon of color, 2 quarts of clear and 2 quarts and 2 half pints of hardner. I am going single stage PPG Concept with a custom red mix. Last 2 coats will be 1/2 color 1/2 clear. Hope to have the car in color by the end of September as I will be painting it in my driveway:pirat:
