Hi Glen, thank you for your review. I'm so sorry to hear our Cabinet, Door & Trim Enamel did not provide the coverage you expected. Generally, paint will cover in 1-2 coats. However, porous surfaces and drastic color transitions may need additional coats for uniformity. Nonetheless, we value your customer experience with our products, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance; our Customer Care team is happy to help! -Lina
