Market Size for Military Epoxy Paint

Q. Can you give me a rough idea how much epoxy paint is consumed by the military in a year? If you have no idea, do you know how I can get this information?

The main suppliers of coatings to the military are Sherwin-Williams, Deft, PPG and Hentzen. If you speak to folks at GSA you will find out which other companies are selling under contract go the military. My guess is that the ones named above cover the lion's share. If you can interview folks at these four companies and perhaps one or two more you might get close to the answer.
