How many gallons of paint would it take to paint the outside of a building the size of 6 barns?
Micturition
A good formula to use is 350 square feet of coverage for each gallon of paint. This can vary a bit, depending on the surface of the building and how many coats you'll need to cover an existing color (if any). Get your measurements, calculate the total square footage that needs to be covered, and divide that number by 350. Assuming you'll only need one coat of paint, you'll have your answer!
Example: 4 exterior walls, each 16 feet in height and 100 feet in length = 1,600 square feet per wall = 6,400 square feet for all 4 walls. In this case, you'd need just under 19 gallons of paint to cover the building with one coat. Hope this helps out, and happy painting!
