How much will I need to seal about 40 sq. ft. of countertop?

The pint will be adequate to cover the 40 sq ft area twice at least, probably more. The variable will be whether you are covering new wood or are refreshing. Either way, apply lightly, work in and then wipe off excess. Multiple coats yield best results in my opinion.

We used Cheng Concrete Sealer. We've had this as our kitchen counter top for about four months, and we're very happy with it. I recommend getting more than you need of both the concrete slurry and sealer and practicing on a throw away surface before applying to the surface that matters.

The sealer unit measures: 15 3/8" Long x 6 1/8" Wide x 3" High from counter top. It works great, the trick is, if your going to be doing a lot of sealing at one time to let the heating elements cool down after 3 seals. Fan it with a check book cover or the like. Hope this helps?

I was told by an authorized repair person that 750-800 sq ft was the maximum area to be covered. However much of the advertising for this appliance states 1000 sq ft.

I used 1/4" cork underlayment bought in 200 square foot rolls. I taped the seems. Turned out perfect. Best floors ever. Seal with Bona Traffic. Even placed in my bathroom. No problems.

We covered about 40 sq feet. We had enough to cover the surface twice. The Kit states that it will cover about 35 sq feet. I would buy two kits. We are very happy with the product and will use it again in the future. It has been installed and problem free for 10 months.

I have a smaller kitchen than you, but you don't have to use much when applying it to the cabinets or furniture. Purchase one to estimate the coverage from a 16oz. bottle.

The kit says 35-40 square feet. I have two 9.5 countertops, standard depth and had product left over. Overall very happy with my countertops.

Very loosley but I would think it should seal sufficiently. If you are not going to use the hanging bracket feature, I think they may have better models for countertop. I have 5 different ones-love the company.

oh wow....I have no idea. I can't begin to figure it out. A lot would depend on how many coats you think you need. I'm sorry, I wish I could help. I do know that for the price I am pleased with what I use it for. Also, finding the clear one in the stores is near impossible. So far this is the only one I found that works for the outdoor areas I wish to seal.

When used indoors the ambient temperature in the basement should be above 40 degrees. If your sealing from the outside in, outdoor temps must be above the freezing mark.

About 25-30 seems good for light coatings. 40 is alright if you're doing a large section

Well, a gallon is 231 cubic inches, so if your coating thickness is about 4 mils (0.004 inches) then you get up to 400 square feet. However, since you want this to soak in as much as possible, you might want a thicker coat, say 10 mils (0.010 inches) which would give you about 32 square feet. What really matters is not the coverage, but the ability to seal the grain and that depends on the type and moisture content of your wood. For purchasing decisions, I would use maybe 100 to 200 sq. ft per gallon for the first trial and then use experience to determine how much for the next purchase.

It depends on how thick you spread it. If you do it on a warm day it spreads easier. I think 40 sq ft per gallon is close if your spreading a thin coat. I did all the seams and around sky lights and such on a 23 foot and only used 1/3 of a gallon.

Just enough to form a seal to keep odors out. A 1/4" of water is plenty. The key, though, is to change the water frequently and to make sure the water does not directly contact the butter. Butter + stagnant moisture = mold.

I would say 400-450 and I would recommend 3 coats min. I did 2 and it was not enough. I had some additional work on my house after I finished the floor. The pros normally do 2-3 then come back after everyone is done and do an addition coat or two.

It depends on your thickness. A totally smooth surface will also take less because you aren't having to make it thick enough to cover the bumps. How smooth is your plywood? Typically, 2 gallons (total) does about 60 square feet for a countertop so you could be looking at 12 gallons. At a 2:1 ratio, that would be 8:4. But that might be too thick.
