Default Painting vs Monocoat?

Hey guys,

Years ago we used to paint all out pattern planes, now monocoat is the standard practice.

I don't much like monocoat, so, with painting as a option I'm considering painting my 35% Carden Extra 330 using PPG K36 high build primer, most of it would be sanded off to fill all the pores, etc, seal with DP primer and paint with base coat clear coat or pehaps use single stage paint. My main question is what would the weight difference be?

What are your favorite painting technics?

Tom
