I followed the Caswell directions when I did mine. After thoroughly cleaning the tank with acetone, I filled it with a handful of screws and shook it up to scuff up the interior. Rinsed with acetone again and let it sit, open for a couple of days. I applied the caswell twice, carefully mixing each time.

Does Caswells specifically mention anything about two coats?

The literature said something about 1 coat being plenty, but if done in 2 coats, the second coat should be done after 8 hours and before 24 hours. I don't remember exactly, but followed the directions. They only sold one size kit, which they said was enough to coat a smaller tank twice.
