Wade,
 I didn't count, the first ones I used lint free rags that put it on a lot thinner, then went to the foam brush that applies it thicker but you get runs easier.You will know when you sand between coats if the imperfections are covered and when the decals are covered later on and you have a even glossy finish.

Absolutely gorgeous!  Fantastic job on refinishing your '59.  By the way, what type of polish did you use when you were done?
