The color you want is GLOW ORANGE, you will know it when you see it. I hear ya, "How much can you cover with 1 oz." A lot actually, but first dump the contents into a empty paint can and mix with about 20oz. of lacquer thinner. Use some of the thinner to rinse out the paint bottle. Shake it up before each use and brush (not spray) a thin coat on the surface to be sanded. It dries quickly to a thin film that sands easily wet or dry, will not clog the paper, and shows defects and low spots painfully well. After sanding excess color can be dissolved with fresh lacquer thinner on a stiff brush and blotted up on a paper towel. Try it, you'll like it, besides how many experiments can you do these days for a bucktwentynine.
