How to calculate how much paint I need to purchase?
How to calculate how much paint I need to purchase?
How high id the room?
15ft x height x 4 (walls) = feet sq.
Height is 7' 5''
So 15 x 8 x 4 = 480 feet sq?
Yep, that's approx 146sq meters so around four large 10L tubs based on a paint coverage of 14m²/Ltr.
Obviously you will actually have less to cover minus windows, doors, skirting etc but depending on the state/original colours of the walls you may need to put multiple coats on some areas.
Haha Doh!480sq ft is more like 44sq m not 146
