Some, not much.

It's hell on cutting tools.

I think the Carnivore would be best suited with a new pair of grips..............

It cuts like fiberglass, mostly making powder, and only some chips.
It is, however, very abrasive, and dulls tools very quickly.

How much do you need, and are you specific on color?

I have no idea how much I would need. I've never worked with it before. I don't even know how to shape it. Doesn't it require a mask and what not?
