And then about 2 copper metalizer - 40€
And then about 2 smoke - 40€
which is 130€ (177$) 
I don't know about the 4 cans copper/smoke, because it's hard to tell how much of a can is needed to make one layer. |
Well, over there in germany, it is way expensive then here us.
I got black from lowes @ $5.xx per can.
Copper & smoked were 8.99 per can from pepboys but got 20% off coupon so net price was $7.19.
You may like the tone after very light coat of copper is added on black base. If this works, one can of copper is more than enough.
When you are using metallizer kind of color or color enhancer, you should use light coat at a time to get the tone what you wanted/like, but in my case, I kinda overly sprayed that is why I used smoked to get the darker tone back. Then I over sprayed again with smoked. It came out too dark so had to use left over copper and smoked to get the tone I needed. & it was night time when I did it first so if you are going for it, make sure you do it in day light.
