One or two coats???

Just curious - how many coats do you typically spray when using a HVLP system - one coat or two light coats?

Two light coats.

Thanks for responding. That's what I've always done, but then I watched a "how to" video the other day and it said 1 coat. Just about everything that I've read and watched says something a little bit different. Some say 1 coat;others say 2 light coats. Some stress to start with the face; others say to do the face last. I guess you just need to look at all the information out there and then develop your own technique.
