A pro will have a good idea if one coat will work, if its much
different it will require two coats sometimes 3, it can often be
backrolled within 15 minutes to get it to cover, a real second coat
wont be double the price since they will already be set up, and prep
could be the major cost, it might only add 60-70 a room for a second
coat, If i look at a color I usualy can tell someone if its one or two
coats and if two I point that out before so a person has the option to
get a color that will cover in one to save money. .
