Ah! Testors! Enamel paints are literally a bitch to learn to use. Don't paint outside where there's wind or dust because you'll have paint flying everywhere but your model, and you're very likely to get dust specs in the paint. All I can recommend is to have plenty of light to check for paint runs, and spray from about 16" away to be safe. Your first coat needs to make speckles on the body, your second coat needs to get coverage, but not total, and the third coat should be full coverage. Enamels have a good tendency to self-level and be glossy, but if you need another coat after the 3rd one, go ahead and give it a shot but watch out for runs because enamels don't like sticking to smooth surfaces.
