Generally too small if you want a bit of reserve for longer days/first cleans.
I use 300 litres on an average 6 hour day.
My first van had a 400L and that was fine for most days.

I bet you get longer and more done than you thought but you will need a Univlave if you don’t already have one,saves huge amounts of water.

Too small.dont forget you always need at least 25L in the bottom of your tank to stop you getting airlocks.
I regularly drain nearly all my 500L tank in a 6 hour day(and I use a univalve with a high flow)
Using a high flow makes me work quicker too.

Yes ideally you want a 500 but I reckon you’d be surprised how much you’d get done with the right dead end set on the pole and a univalve

There will always be the days that come where you may need or want to work on . or have a few first cleans to do , so 350 may not be big enough depending on your needs . I carry some barrels as back up and a pump to transfer the barrels into my tank while I work.
I am also fortunate that I live in a soft water area ... around 50 ppm , so when I need to , I take a DI with me and top up while I work

You'll probably find yourself turning down the flow and being very carefull with the univalve trying to get by.
I have a 650 tank now, ive run out of 500l a few times.
