Coverage Data
Square foot coverage varies because of difference in the solids content of each product required to obtain necessary dry film thickness. Surface protection is directly related to care in preparation before painting and the dry film thickness of coating. A minimum of 4.5 mils on exterior of tanks and spreaders is required.
Excessive “sweating” of tanks and unusual damp environment requires greater depth of the paint film to retard water in the form of vapor from reaching the surface beneath. Allow for paint lost or wasted during spray application, usually 15%. Products and amounts required shown in gallons.
