It takes a bit more gear but you may get away with 2 but some times it takes an extra scratch just to get it abit more even for the top coat.

3 coats mate all the time... rough the lath in first with stiffish gear, then a tight leveling/second scratch coat then finish coat

i agree

and fixing the lath, do you over lap 100mm or fix it with no over lap ? i thought i saw some where you wire it together??
