    A gallon each of primer and topcoat should easily do it as long as you don't go nuts and start painting the front of the blade and the tracks. Cat enamel is pretty good, and inexpensive (at least where I am). If you want a better finish, go for two-pack. Cat do a two-pack which seems pretty reasonably priced as well, but I've never used it.
