Coatings Science Methods for Calculating Paint Usage

the basis for calculating the amount of coating is the paint area, the required dry film thickness and the volume solid content of the coatingfirst, according to the volume of the paint solid content and the required dry film thickness, press the table to find out the theoretical paint area per liter of paintThe paint area divided by the theoretical paint area per liter of paint is the amount of paintcan correspond to the theoretical paint area (m2/L) of the paint per literrequires dry film thickness (micron) paint volume solid content (%)3035404555560

in fact, the paint seller did not provide the volume of the paint solid content, the user is not aware of how thick the dry film they needTherefore, it can only be assumed that the theoretical paint area per liter of paint, such as 6m/L, estimate the amount of paintOr estimate the amount of paint based on the theoretical paint area (or the theoretical paint area per kilogram of paint) provided by the paint sellerFor the paint seller to provide the theoretical paint area per liter of paint (or the theoretical paint area per kilogram of paint), to ask clearly refers to the coating once, or twice Normally it should be painted all over Apply again, the amount of paint is the paint area / the theoretical paint area per liter of paint Paint twice, the amount of paint is (painting area / the theoretical paint area per liter of paint) x 2
