how much primer

I already posted this once but I think I put it in the wrong place. Either that or I have bad breath. Anyway, I want to paint the cab on my 59 f 100 with epoxy primer followed by a filler primer and base coat. I was planning on two coats of the epoxy and a couple coats of the filler. How much primer should it take for the cab. Also is it safe to switch brands after the epoxy. The p sheet says it's good for any system. The epoxy is Nason. I haven't bought the primer filler and base/clear yet. The only Nason dist. is 100 miles away.

Are you spraying the inside of the cab too? Firewall?

Nason (Dupont) Ful-Poxy is good stuff.... you might get away with 2 quarts + reducer for 2 coats.

I will be painting the inside of the cab but I am just concerned with the outside cab right now. The truck didn't t have a bed and I am building a flat bed for it. I want to paint the frame and cab before I mount the flat bed.
