I'd love to have John's set up and experience, but that's just not the case. Still trying different techniques for my first build. What are the steps? How much will I need? How many coats? And thanks again.

The two things I'd suggest are:
1. Apply THIN coats;
2. Allow plenty of drying time between each coat.
