Mark,

On a urethane base / clear you need 2 coats base (depending on color 
coverage) and min. 2 coats clear,preferably with no sanding in between( its 
a chemical bond your after). If mistakes are made there is definaltly room 
for sanding and repair. If this is a solid color you can use just 2 coats 
urethane colorcoat. All colorcoat final wetsand should be 1500-2000 grit, 
(with a little dish detergent in the water) then buffing process. This is a 
general rule for urethanes but best to consult the brands directions your 
using.
