4 Ls will be fine


4ltrs will probably be too much if your simply doing an overcoast of the standard colour. youll be suprised how far 2.5L will go.

also how are you planing on spraying this on?
- what size compressor do you have?needs to be over 2.5.horse power
- where are you spraying it? do you have access to a booth?
- whos spraying it for you? with it just being a top coat (if thats what you decide on) then the chances of running will increase and it may be tricky to get the hang of.
- what type of paint will you be getting? 2pac has to be sprayed in a booth because its illegal to vent into the atmosphere.
- if you do manage to get 2pac it cant be done through a gravity fed gun.

other than that make sure you do ALOT of sanding and get pin dents out. dont let your primer get wet and try to let the primer stand for as close to 24hrs as possible.

you will also need a few ltrs if clear
