Transcript of Junk Gypsy™ and Rachel Ashwell SHABBY CHIC® Paint Coverage Explanation
If a quart covers
150 sq. ft., what would that
be in furniture?
Question:
The Short Answer:{sort of}
Traditional paint companies state that one gallon will cover 400 sq. ft.
There are 4 quarts in a gallon.
Therefore; one quart of traditional paint should cover 100 sq. ft.
{We} are not a traditional paint. Our paint goes quite a bit further.
One quart of Junk Gypsy™ Paint or Rachel Ashwell’s SHABBY CHIC® Paint will cover 150 sq. ft.
That means...
1 Quart = 150 sq ft
...will cover my kitchen cabinets one time. 137 sq ft of surface area
1 Pint = 75 sq ft
...will cover a three piece bedroom set.Full Size Headboard 23 sq ftStandard Night Stand 8 sq ft
4 Drawer Dresser 18 sq ft_________________________
49 sq ft
1 Sample = 37.50 sq ft...will cover my dresser.
I JUST MEASURED IT.
Here’s what I did...
It’s 17” deep, 51” across & 32” tall.
Sides: 17” x 32” = 544” x TWO = 1088”(because there are two sides)
Front: 51” x 32” = 1632”Top: 51” x 17” = 867”
ADD THEM ALL UP and DIVIDE BY 144.(because there are 144” in a square foot)
3587” / 144 = 24 sq ft.
Square Footage: total area of the surface of a two-dimensional
space.
Surface Area: total area of the surface of a three-dimensional
object.
Square Footage &
Surface Area
