ok...me and a couple guys bought a 76 chev g20 van, already did most bondo work, and prepping. Were planning on painting it a flat black with gold trim, wheels with chrome bumpers, and beauty rings. Wondering about a few points...

a) what is the thinning procedure for 1 gallon of tremclad flat black paint? How much mineral spirits do i have to mix in?

b)What do i all have to buy?

c)What is the difference between roll-on vs. spray on? (air comp, gun and location already taken care of)
