How much blue pearl do you have? enough to paint an entire car and possibly jams and inside hood and hatch?

looks like a very dark blue, like the kind that only shows up under major sunlight

u can have the 1.9 oz left of 2 oz for like 15$. and the amount of pearl that u put in will obviously determine how much light is necessary for it to show up. but in parking lots and sunlight, u can see it. but if u put more then more will show up

Does anyone have any recommendations for a paint SUPPLIER? I have a guy that will be painting mine in a few more weeks, he probably has his own connections but if not I want to be ready.. .I am looking for a 350Z blue, or something VERY similar.. I don't want that sky blue or basically black blue, just that really deep blue the 350Z has
