Hi Tina, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about your experience using the Cabinet, Door and Trim Semi-Gloss Paint. Typically, this should cover in two coats when applied to a primed surface. Additional coats can be applied after just two hours of drying. However, if that paint is allowed to cure for 7 days or more before another coat is applied, scuff sanding the glossy surface may be needed for proper adhesion. Nonetheless, your satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback and for reaching out to us directly. Our customer care team is happy to help you! - Randy
