One can should do it for two light coats and one wet one. Then one can of clear if going base/clear. Otherwise you could get single stage like acrylic enamel and be done with it once you've sprayed the color coats.

Remember these cans spray a nice even mist cost, and don't try to cover everything and finish it in one coat. Everybody has that tendency when they have sprayed before. You'll just make a mess, waste paint and most likely have to redo it.

Either way you will have a MUCH easier time learning with a proper spray can instead of Home Depot junk. It might not be the worst idea in the world to buy a second color can and practice your stroke on some cardboard or something. The lip will be easy to do once you get the motion down.
