how much paint you will need will make a difference on how much you need.

wax??? wax comes to the surface when it cures.put some gel coat on it that will work,you can also tint gelcoat to any colour you want

the surfacing wax is supposed to be mixed into the polyester resin on the final coat so that it does rise up to seal the surface. theres also another curing chemical that you spray on and rinse off after a day or two. i unfortunately forgot the name of it.
 
Ill just use good ol hardie board and drylok... Comes out cheaper (40$ for a 8x2x2)
 
hardie board and dryloc scares the hell out of me,ilikewomen,please post some pics of theses hardieboard tanks,weve spoken about this before i think?its just not cricket to me......
