About this calculator
How many epoxy kits a garage, workshop or basement floor needs for the number of coats you plan.
How it’s calculated
Amount = area × coats ÷ coverage. Typical coverage is 4–6 m² per litre per coat at standard film thickness.
Worked example
With these inputs:
- Measure by
- Length × width
- Length
- 4.5 m
- Width
- 3.6 m
- Coats
- 2
- Coverage per litre per coat (m²)
- 5
- Kit size
- 5 L
- Decorative flakes
- Yes
the result is:
- Epoxy needed
- 6.5 L
- Area
- 16.2 m²
Tips from the trade
- Grind or acid-etch the concrete first. Adhesion is everything.
- Fresh concrete needs to cure for about 28 days before coating.
- Do a moisture test (taped plastic sheet) before you start.
