Default Sideboard Strategies?

That is true. However, look at it this way: If you put finish "A" on
that has 20% solids, compared to "B" that is 30% solids, you will have
an extra 10% more solids on the material with just one coat of B
compared to A. With two coats of B, it is like having three coats of
A. Lots more resin on the project.


Joining the nit picking contest, ;~)

If can A has 20% solids and can B has 30% solids, you will have 50% more
solids on the material coated with can B.

2 coats of B would indeed be like 3 coats of can A.
