Film covering, too.  White is heavy.  I got some fluorescent stuff that was even worse.

The colors that cover with less coats will be lighter. Yellow takes more coats than white. Black covers real well obviously. But I know thats not exactly what your asking, but its something to consider.

Not only that, but for red, orange, and yellow to come out nice and bright, you need to have white under it. White (heavy in itself) plus more color makes red, orange and yellow even heavier than white alone.  :( Steve
