Paint Coverage Guidelines

  • 1 gallon: Covers approximately 350-400 sq ft
  • Standard door: ~21 sq ft (3' × 7')
  • Standard window: ~15 sq ft (3' × 5')

Tip: Dark colors or textured walls may require more paint. Always buy a little extra for touch-ups.

When to Use Multiple Coats

  • 1 coat: Touch-ups, same color refresh
  • 2 coats: Standard for most color changes (recommended)
  • 3 coats: Dramatic color changes (light to dark or dark to light)
