Alright, if I wasn't interested in buying a new nozzle (I'm a bit cheap ), how thick could I print with a 0.4mm nozzle? (I have a Prusa i3)
Thanks for your time,

To make it water tight it really is best to do it in one single walled spiral.
However you should also over extrude to make the walls thicker. This is done automatically. So for example if you have a 0.4mm nozzle (what kind of printer do yo have? Please add to your account settings) and you tell cura the shell size is 0.8mm then it will doubly extrude.
Even better, use a 0.8mm nozzle or larger.
