How many coats of white paint is needed to cover a dark surface of up to 600 sq ft?
The answer will depend on the quality of the paint, the coverage of the paint and the preparation of the surface being painted. The Lowe's paint calculator says primer covers 200 square feet per gallon, and paint covers 350 square feet per gallon. Assuming for a dark surface you need at least 2 coats, and you are only using paint and not primer, and not knowing the type of paint, I would start with 3 gallons to be sure you have enough for 2 coats, and then see how it looks. If you need three coats, you might still have enough.
