: Would the more coats later work for enamel as well? How about surface prep?

Arko
It would work for enamel as well (oil based).Sanding between coats will help with a smoother finish.
Sanding the latex helps also but Oil bases will end up smoother.
I used Latex because it is flexible,and faster than oil , to get the job done!
Regards Terry
Ps One of these days I want to build the East Arctic? like you did.
