silviaks2nr is an unknown quantity at this point
It can take more or less than 3 coats of base. 3 coats is a good average I agree, but I've painted cars that only needed 2 coats of base and some needing up to 5. The coverage depends on the sealer color used, the product line of the paint (cheaper lines generally don't cover as well), metallic or solid (metallics cover better) and the tints themselves.
