Check out this paint booth

On a 737 its about 50 gallons for a typical paint job and about 250 lbs after it dries.
Step up to a 747 and its about 90 to 100 gallons. And you should see the paint booth for those. It sure isn't a blue tarp.
Ask me how I know... Boeing Engineer since 1988

What is the paint material?
 
I was going to say about 50-60 gallons. Thats what it takes to do a big offshore raceboat so they are in the same ballpark.
