How many coats? It took 1 can to put 3 coats on the inside of my tailgate. So 2-3 should do at least 2 good coats. Your truck is black though, so more like 3-5 cans to cover ALL of it up.

Just the top, not the a pillars or doors. You want to make sure that you cant see the black underneath the white.
