How many coats of paint can one gallon of paint cover?

The number of coats per gallon depend on the size of the area you are going to paint. Most paint cans have the area of coverage per gallon printed somewhere on the label. Divide the area of coverage by the area you are going to paint to determine how many coats you can apply.


How many coats of paint is 1 mm?

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 many coats of paint should you put on the exterior of a house?

Two coats are always better than one inside or out. The paint job will last much longer and look better because you will not have the old color bleeding through.I have had to put as many as three coats of white on a house but rarely if a good quality paint is used. One is only good enough if you plan on moving in the near future and you using the same color. One thing I must stress is you need to use a high quality paint if you do not want to have it painted again for a long time. So the answer is you should put two coats on! www.martinbrotherspainting.com Chattanooga, Tennessee


Why is it hard to paint using accent base paint?

Looking at user comments, it seems that the brand of paint you choose will make a difference as to how many coats of paint you will need to get the results (depth or evenness of color). The accent paint will be the lighter color of the two. Evermore or Valspar were recommended.

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.
