Your painter should be able to tell you what he needs. Some painters prefer to work with certain brands of paint. It's whatever they get comfortable with.

I bought a whole gallon for mine but was changing colors too.

The paint code is 8774 for red on our cars but it's on the door,your painter should know where to look. It'll say wa 8774 at the bottom of a vin sticker.
