Can you say a little more about the product to use for the final coat?

You can get in a bucket or a box normal sold in a couple gallons. Drywall mud not spackle. https://www.acehardware.com/departments/paint-and-supplies/patch-and-repair/joint-compound/12922

I would use a lightweight, not all purpose, for the final coat. Much easier to sand.

That is the stuff, instead of setting when mixed with water via chemical reaction, the bucket/premixed stuff dries, you can't apply it too thick, hence the setting type for the main leveling. Its also a lot softer than the setting type, so its easy to sand.
