Epoxy primer question

Getting ready to prime my 30 A pickup parts. My question is do you think 1 gallon of 4 to 1 will cover all my body parts. I do have a gallon of Eastwood Chassis Black that could be used for the underside of bed, fenders and inside the cab if need be. Any help from experienced forum members would be greatly appreciated. http://youtu.be/UjXh-eDbg60

That 'should' be enough if you are looking to just 'cover' the parts.
If you are looking to prime, block, reprime, this probably won't be enough. I know I used a couple of gallons on my truck, but a lot was sanded off in the blocking and sanding steps.

Thanks TAZ, I was going to block sand the fill primer. But my prep is good and flat so maybe Ill be ok, was planning on using a sealer primer over the fill primer but peeps are telling me not to now. Ive used a sealer primer on fill when shooting PPG in the past. I opted for MATRIX this time.

I always use a wet on wet sealer. This makes the base cover better.
What color are you painting your 30?
