Is 1 quart of acrylic urethane enough to paint 5 wheels?

Rookie needs help on how much paint to buy.

I plan to paint 5 steel 15" wheels that have been sandblasted and will be gray epoxy primed.

Color is wimbledon white.

TCP Global has the quart kit for $50 and the gallon kit, which I know is overkill, for $100.

A quart should do three coats on your wheels, your bumpers and your grill.

If you have a HVLP gun that will definitely be enough.

Clark, as Skip and Grump have said, a quart is plenty, and at $100 a gallon I am thinking if you have plans to paint anything else that color, like two toning your truck, you'd come out better with the gallon. But that's just my
I paint Aircraft Wheels a bright pure white Urethane Enamel on occasion at work and we use an Epoxy
Primer on them as well. The method below works well for me. Since I do so many of them at a time
I use a two quart pressure pot with an HVLP gun on it so I don't have to stop and refill it.
It amazes me how much more a quart costs in relation to a gallon. By the time you mix your
paint and catalyst/activator together you will have quite a lot more. Have fun with this Clark. Start with a light coat, let it tack up a little, followed by a medium coat, let that set 15-20 minutes, and last a full wet coat. Those wheels will look brand new. TR
