Calculating the right amount of paint for your wall finishes can be crucial for efficient budgeting and project planning. Here's a practical calculator to help you determine the amount of paint needed based on wall dimensions and paint coverage.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following example for a practical calculation:

• Wall height: 10 feet
• Wall width: 15 feet
• Number of walls: 4
• Coverage of Grade A paint: 350 square feet per gallon
• Coverage of Grade B paint: 250 square feet per gallon

Using these values, the total wall area is:

Total Wall Area = 10 feet × 15 feet × 4 walls = 600 square feet

The paint required for each grade is calculated as follows:

• Paint required for Grade A = 600 square feet / 350 square feet per gallon ≈ 1.71 gallons
• Paint required for Grade B = 600 square feet / 250 square feet per gallon = 2.4 gallons
