You won't need more than a gallon to do either the mold or the part, but might need more than one gallon to do them both. Be careful about buying vinylester that you don't plan to use. Shelf life is very short. I'd use epoxy for everything but fuel tanks, personally. Epoxy is a lot more predictable and controllable (thanks to the more equal mix ratios), especially when laying up something that big that will take half the day. I guess if you already have the stuff on hand, you're about to find out all about the qualities, but the problem is when you order a new batch, the curing properties will likely be different in the next batch, because it'll probably have been promoted a longer or shorter time ago than you batch you just used.
