I often hear that a Tamiya spray can only get you one model, I can easily get two little Hondas.
But what really precipated this query was my first used of Cobra Colors paint. On the website, it says to expect a bottle of paint to last one car with some left over. I've sprayed a model with their paint twice because I messed up the first try, and I've used only a third of the bottle, and I still felt that I was laying down too much both times! Do I use to little? Is there some reason that I should use more? Should I paint it, let it sit and give it more coats until I use up the paint or something? I am confused.

I used to use 1/2 to 2/3 of a two ounce jar on an average 1/24 scale body with my Paasche VL, but I've discovered I use far less with my Iwata HP-C. Much less overspray now.
