Latex paint typically contains around 50-60% water by volume, which helps to dissolve the pigments and binders. The exact amount can vary based on the specific formulation and desired viscosity of the paint. It's important not to add too much water during application, as this can dilute the paint and affect its performance and finish. Always refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for the best results.
