Weight savings between enamel and lacquer paint?

I can't tell you how much one weighs over the other but the two cars I have done from bare metal were with 2 coats of a light colored single stage acrylic enamel over a light primer. 13 years now on the Duster and aside from racing related chips and scratch's it looks as good as the day I rolled it out of the spray booth. I would not expect a base coat/clear coat paint job to be lighter.
