I have a 75 bus with pop top and it has the origonal paint unber a very bad spray over. I want to sand it back to origonal, use spray can primer to touch up any bog / metal and then spray gun the rest. It is only a rough bus and I need to do it cheap as I am traveling.

How many coats to last a few years,
How much will I need?
Should I spray prime the whole thing?
What type of paint?
Where can I get it?
Cheap??????????????

Thanks for any help
