如何计算Paint

learn.whatIsHeading

A paint calculator estimates the number of litres needed to cover walls and ceilings based on room dimensions and paint coverage rates. Most standard emulsions cover 10–14m² per litre; masonry and exterior paints typically cover less (8–10m² per litre).

分步指南

  1. 1Calculate wall area: add all wall surfaces (length × height for each wall)
  2. 2Subtract doors (~2m²) and windows (~1.5m²) from the total
  3. 3Divide by coverage rate (m² per litre) for the paint type
  4. 4Multiply by number of coats (typically 2 for fresh colour, 1 for same colour)

例题解析

输入
4m × 5m room, 2.5m ceiling, 2 coats
结果
~5 litres of wall paint
Wall area ≈ 45m², ÷12 m²/L × 2 coats = 7.5L → round up
输入
Ceiling 4m × 5m, 1 coat
结果
~2 litres
20m² ÷ 12 m²/L = 1.67L → 2L tin
