I used 6 cans. If you want to do it I can give you a few tips.

First i washed my truck then I picked my body line then taped it off then used newspaper to prevent over spray then I wiped everything I wanted plastic dipped with acidtone real well. Next step is to spray everything with plastic dip except next to your tape line. I did the first coat kind of think waited 30 mins between coats and put a total of 4 coats. I went real liter next to my tape line on the 3rd coat then the last coat I sprayed heavy and pulled the tape right away after. It was very hard to get the lines behind the bumper and remember to open your door and tape that off as well. If I was to do it over I would.take my rear bumper off. Let me know how it turns out for ya

Do your front and rear chrome on your bumpers. I plan on doing those, my rims, and badges in spring.
