Better coverage means fewer coats and fewer work hours for your painter; better durability means that you won't have to spend money to paint the exterior of your home again in just a few years. How do you know how much paint you're paying for? Here's some helpful math: A 2,100 square-foot home will take about 12 gallons of paint (high-quality paint covers about 350 square feet in two coats). 2,100 / 350 = 6 x 2 = 12 gallons. Always double the number you'll need because it takes two coats to cover a home exterior.
