    I completely missed this post. But this is way overkill. No need to go with this many coats. The law of diminishing returns pertains to coatings just like wax.

    I recall reading that after around 3 coats the coating does not bond to itself any more and that each coat is then removed essentially adding no benefit. Just what I read and heard.

    In most cases one coat is fine. 2-3 max depending on the manufacturers recommendations.

    So if One has to go with a combo of coatings say firstly uk is applied and then it has to be topped up with gliss... so a single coat of each or can 2 coats of each be applied?

    One coat of each would be fine. If you really wanted to do multiple coats then two cots UK and one of Gliss.
