The spreadability of specific Mitico paint product
See bottom of individual product information page,
given as litre of paint per square meter(s)

The method of application  paint brush>roller>spray>broom
Paint applied by brush will spread further than that applied by airless spray
 
Substrate surface porosity
Friable surfaces or substrates with high water suction will ‘soak’ up more paint.
Normally the second coat of paint will spread further than the first coat.
Surfaces pre-sealed with Mitico PrimeTech will require less ‘high cost’ decorative paint due to reduced rate of absorption into the old substrate.
 
Surface texture
Much less paint required for a smooth flat surface compared to a rough textured stone chip surface
 
Surface area to be painted
Profile of roof iron (the hills and valleys) may make the surface area 1.5 times greater than equal flat area.
 
Calculation example
Bare rough sawn Wood 2 by 25 meter fence
using TCoat paint, applying by brush (one coat)
(25*2)*2 [two sides]/10 [1 litre TCoat covers 10 to 12 meters]
 = 10 litres TCoat paint required.
