Depends on how good you are and the quality of the paint.  It also depends a
little on weather you are painting a white top coat on top of white Smooth
Prime or are using contrasting colors.  I did way too many coats on my KR
and used two gallons.  I also painted my M1 a few months ago and one gallon
was enough to do about the same surface area as on the KR.

Keep in mind also that with some paints you buy a gallon and you get a
gallon of paint and wind up with more when you put in the activator and
reducer.  With Imron and some others you get 3 quarts of paint in the gallon
can and a quart of activator for 1 gallon when mixed.

Netters,
    Can a KR2 be painted with one gallon of paint or should I order two
gallons?
