Garage and floor coatings

Epoxy floor calculator

Estimate mixed gallons and complete kits for an epoxy floor system using the product's published coverage rate.

Enter floor area, coats, and product coverage

Coverage changes with surface profile, porosity, temperature, application method, and broadcast media.

Coating system

Use mixed-volume coverage from the actual primer, build coat, or topcoat data sheet. Different layers often require separate calculations.

Project check

Coverage changes with the slab and coating system

Published square feet per gallon normally assumes a particular film thickness and surface condition. Porous concrete, repairs, broadcast aggregate, primer, color coat, and topcoat can each require separate quantities.

Formula

Epoxy coverage formula

gallons = floor area × coats × allowance ÷ coverage per gallon

Calculate primers, color coats, metallic systems, broadcast coats, and urethane or polyaspartic topcoats separately when their coverages differ.

Surface preparation

Coverage does not guarantee adhesion

Test moisture and contaminants, repair defects, and prepare the concrete to the coating manufacturer's required surface profile before mixing material.
