How Much Sprayable Epoxy Should I Expect To Use?

Spraying underside of second gen camaro/firebird with custom mixed red/black epoxy. How much sprayable materal should I expect for 3 good coats?
 
What I do when spraying 3 coats is to mix what I think I'll need, spray, write down what is left over, then mix what I'll need for next coat. That way none is wasted. Works real good when doing a panel at a time. That way you know how much to mix when doing the other fender, door, etc.
 
For my style it would probably take 2-3 medium pps cups mixed so probably 40-60 ounzes mixed. Closer to 2 cups than 3 though. 1st coat light just to wet and the next 2 are wet.

More if your working up the firewall and such. I'm talking just the pan, trunk, and wheel wells.

I do this with base coat and clear sometimes as well. It seems I can never guess correctly the first time.
