picklex-20 amount needed?

I need to coat the interior of my 79 Bronco with Picklex-20. Should 1 quart be enough or do I need to get the gallon?

A quart will be good , just cant waste it tho. Use it only on the bare metal or rust, not painted surfaces. I put mine in a one quart hand pump spray bottle and applied it. Be careful of spraying in close quarters tho, it will burn skin and irritate eyes/nose. I didnt like using a brush, because when brushing upside down , the p20 would run down my hand, plus having to keep sticking the dirty, rusty brush back in my p20 bugged me. So, I just sprayed it on to wet ( not enough to run off the metal tho ) the rusty spots. Then I let it set for two minutes, then wiped the treated metal off with a clean cloth. Be sure to let dry well before applying topcoats. good luck, jmo

The whole interior will be wire brushed and sanded to bare metal then wiped clean...so I will probably use the brushing method. Plus, I'm only doing the floor of the interior. Thanks for you input...I ordered the quart.
