Well actually that depends on the kinda paint your painting. If your doing flake you will need several coats. I would plan on using at least a gallon if not 2.

Talking

if you are using a lacquer that is catalysed, then normally 2 coats is plenty.....but you can apply 3 if you want. For an air dry or single pack lacquer, apply 3-4 coats
