I spray a lot of waterbased acrylic. I have 10 Gallons sitting in my shop
waiting to be applied.....Yup 10 gallons. I have no problem with runs and
sags when I spray and I don't think three coats is "lots of coats"?

Just my experience.

While I don't spray water based clear coats with my hvlp (latex paint
goes through the airless), I spray a fair amount of conversion
lacquers.

I am with you. 3 coats is nothing. At a three mil wet layer per
coat, it takes a minimum of three coats to get a final thickness of 3
mil which is what just about all manufacturers recommend. Spraying
CAB lacquers, a having good spraying conditions, you should be able to
put on multiple coats easily in a day without problems.

Shooting MLC Ultrastar (water borne), I know BARRY has noted multiple
coats in a day as his norm.

But, we all have different experiences.
