A couple of tips:
as has been said- first rule- thin coats. First coat just a dusting. Second coat a bit thicker but only just thicker than a dusting. allow to dry in between coats and expect 4-5 thin coats to get enough paint on. Enough paint means you put it on the floor, or hold away from a light and it looks like a solid colour. If you hold the shell up to the light you will see light through it, that's fine and normal.
Spray in a warm room. Do NOT a cold shell with paint from a cold can, in a cold room (or shed).
Hope that helps.
