Enter your project details and click calculate.
Surface coverage
Measure the total area to be coated and use the same area unit as the selected coverage rate.
Multiple coats
The calculator multiplies the project area by the number of coats before applying the coverage rate.
Waste allowance
Add extra material for overspray, mixing loss, testing, and complex shapes or recessed surfaces.
Frequently asked questions
How is the required coating calculated?
Total area is multiplied by the number of coats, divided by the coverage rate, and then increased by the selected waste percentage.
Can I use square metres?
Yes. Select square metres for both the surface area and coverage-rate units, or let the calculator convert between units.
Why might real usage be higher?
Irregular shapes, spray technique, equipment setup, coating thickness, and surface preparation can all affect actual consumption.
