Will this need 2 coats?

Thank you for asking a question about HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams paint. The painting industry standard is to apply 2 coats of paint for the best results. There are times when you'll want to use a Primer coat. Specifically in cases of a surface having older paint on the walls that hasn't been painting a long time, or having a flat sheen paint on the walls. The paint is used as primer as well as the topcoat. The first coat of this paint is the primer coat and you would want to apply another coat as the topcoat. Both old paint/flat sheen paint will be porous and will soak up the paint more quickly. Using a Primer coat over both would offer the best results. It's important to maintain a wet edge while painting. You would want to work in small sections working left to right across the wall. I usually work in 3 foot sections starting at the top of the wall and paint all the way to the bottom of that 3 foot section. It's important to start painting the next 3 foot section to the right while the first 3 foot section is still wet to avoid lap marks.
