For commercial floors and thick systems, this works from dry film thickness and volume solids instead of kit labels.
How it works
Area × mils ÷ (1,604 × volume solids) per coat, then multiplied by coats and your loss factor. Results round up to half gallons.
Before you order
- Grind or shot blast concrete to the profile the system requires.
- Check concrete moisture before coating, since trapped vapor causes blisters.
- Use a notched squeegee to hold your target thickness.
Common questions
What does 100% solids mean?
All of the liquid cures into film, so a gallon gives 1,604 sq ft at 1 mil. Water or solvent-borne products lose thickness as they dry.
What thickness do I need?
It depends on the system and traffic. Use the coating maker's spec, and enter dry film thickness here.
