Holy crap that's a lot of spray cans!

 

[commando1]

Yes it was!

Oh was there a lot of over spray or is this paint pretty heavy and fall to the ground pretty fast?

Colour choice?

 

[superfragl]

I used 1 can of black primer, 3 cans of Aqua Dupli Color, (did not like the way gray looks), 2 cans of mat clear.

I looked at two different 1969 Polaras and they clearly had the aqua mix. I painted my with gray first and then 3 to 4 cans of the duplicolor. I had no issues with coverage or other.
