I am spraying a k1500 extended cab truck including the jambs but not inside the bed.
I am using BC-05 and not sure what to use for the clear. Any suggestions would help.
How much mixed base and clear do I need to complete the job?

The BC's cover pretty fast( 2-3 coats) you didnt mention under the hood or in between the bed and cab but i would get 4 quarts of base ( HOK only sells base in quarts) which would give you a gallon and a half reduced which should do you with a little to spare over a dark sealer or ground coat. as far as clear goes a gallon set up should keep you covered, its cheaper to buy a gallon of clear than 3 quarts of clear.
