PAINT CALCULATOR
You can use our Paint Calculator to ESTIMATE how many Gallons of Paint you will need
for a particular job (for each coat of Paint). Type in the required demensions, and type in how many Square Feet
per Gallon the Paint is supposed to yield (we recommend using a conservative value of 300
sq. ft. per Gallon). If you have a Door or Window or both on any one or two of the Walls,
type in the approximate dimensions of them also... NEXT click the "Calculate" button
for your results!
NOTE: For rough surfaces like Block, Brick or Stucco, use 20% LESS for the Coverage Value
... so 300 - (.2 X 300) = 240 sq. ft. per Gallon!
NOTE: To Calculate requirements for a CEILING, use the Calculator again
and type in the dimensions for the CEILING into the WALL dimension's Width and Height boxes!
Keep in mind that our Calculator presents only an Approximate Value, and of
course it is always WISE to buy a little MORE Paint than you expect to use!!!
Always wear white
Painters Pants when working... they will afford easy access to tools and since you
