It's 5.98 a can at lowes
And it will be more expensive than projected due to the heavier paint job

They suggest 5gallons for a large SUV
Which is what a Burb would be considered.
I'm doing camo green and the chrome will be matte black

If you by 9 14.5 ounce cans from Lowe's that will make a gallon of pure dip. Now you half in half thin it out. You now have two sprayable gallons for 55 plus tax :) see where I'm going... all you are buying from that dip site is dip already thinned.for twice the price.

That may be a next time thing
But the thicker the dip is the easier it peels off

I'm not sure
I didn't use it since the flat looked as good as it did

What do you use to thin it out with?
