The thickness of a coat of paint can vary based on the type of paint and application method, but generally, a single coat of paint is about 30 to 50 microns thick, or 0.03 to 0.05 mm. Therefore, it would take approximately 20 to 33 coats of paint to reach a thickness of 1 mm, depending on the specific paint used.

How large a surface area in units of square feet will 1 gallon of paint cover if you apply a coat of paint that is 0.1 centimeter thick?

A gallon of paint covers about 300 square feet at a usual thickness of one coat; your example of 0.1 cm thick is very thick coat, equivalent to about 6 coats of paint at least; you could cover about 300/6 =50 square feet at that thickness.
