How many square feet does a gallon cover (assuming two coats are required)? Are two coats recommended for waterproofing a shower enclosure?

Not sure how much coverage; I'm sure the site will tell you. Depends on how many joints/screws you are covering. I bought one gallon for a standard shower enclosure with a shower pan and have half left over. You don't need two coats as it forms a membrane.

I used this product to seal a standard tube sized shower enclosure before it was tiled. I only sealed the seams in both corners and o strip around the middle plus all screw holes in the dura rock I used about 1/2 gallon th double coat that much

you need to use a reinforcing fabric at transitions and seams, etc. At least two coats required. Specs available on required thickness on Laticrete website. I used one full gallon for first coat only, with taped seams over Durock. Standard alcove tub surround.

I put it over Durock so I did NOT completely cover the Durock. I also bought the fiberglass tape also by Laticrete, put Hydro Barrier into the seams, put the tape on top, then more HB over the tape. My gallon almost covered 60 square feet. Almost. Naturally, I had to buy a second gallon to finish the job. This was on a tub enclosure, not a shower.

The particular container that I purchased for 10.68 US Dollars is only one US Quart. It covers approximately100 to 250 sq. ft. per gallon depending on porosity of the item being sealed.

I just bought this product and was concerned about the coverage aswell. I can confirm It covered 50 square feet with two coats and there was some left in the bucket when I was all done.

Guesstimating a 35'x7' roof area (245ft2) and the can says 42ft2 of coverage per gallon and that suggests ~6 cans needed... but that is one coating and I'm not sure of your roof condition, protuberances, etc. If your roof has leaks, many repairs, etc. I would definitely go additional cans.... If perfect I personally would still go one additional can as a fall back (and I have heard this stuff is good for 1-2 years if not overheated/frozen (and not mixed)). NOTHING would be worse than running out before you are done in my opinion >>> you want a single, seamless coating. Good luck

It covered my kitchen counter tops and it was about 60 sq.feet. Had enough for 2 top coats. You can order extra individually of any of it if needed or wanted.

I have since thrown the bucket away but I seem to remember the coverage as 400' per gallon and in most cases it's best to apply 2 coats. The rates are printed on can

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.

I've never monitored it, but most of the time, a gallon of finish is good for 300-400 sq ft.

Oh yeah. I use 3 1/2 tablespoons per gallon mixing rate. A mixed gallon or two should cover 1750 square feet easily.

I would recommend 2 or three coats just to make sure you have good coverage. Let it dry 30 min between coats. With my small kitchen I think I did 6 coats.I apply with a natural sponge and try not to let it pool up. Just put down a nice thin coat each timeAfter 2 years I have not had to recoat my floor yet. If you have minimal traffic it could last a long time

One container should be more than enough. It covers from 80-100 square feet.

I just used a roller and the 4oz bottle covers quite a bit. Hard to say in square feet as I did a round concrete piece, but I'm guessing it was about 6 sq. feet and I have stain left. It goes on very easy and smooth. Make sure you seal afterward.

About 40-60 sq ft per gallon. I used (almost) a gallon on a 25 foot wooden walk-way - applying 2 coats. I suggest you do a search on http://www.evercoat.com/imgs/pis/SKIDNOMORE.pdf because it gives you a lot of information. I am actually very happy with it. Make sure it is mixed well before applying.

it depends on the sq. feet you are covering. For 2000 sq. feet I use 2 gal. water with about 2.5 grams of product(1.28 grams per 1000 sq-ft) So 15000 sq-ft @ 15 gal water would use about 19 grams or about 2/3 oz of product (28.35 grams to an oz)(based on the calculations from the label) also: you can go to Google maps and zoom into area you want to cover. Use their measuring tool to get the square feet....pretty cool! Hope this helps

I do one coat and Floor Revive works so well I don't think you will need a second coat. I put it on by hand with a small sponge and one bottle covers 300 square feet. So 3 coats on 500 square = 5 bottles.

It covers 350 square feet per gallon, per coat. For maximum performance, two coats are required.

I do 2 coats on a whole shower (average 100 sf) with about 2 to 2-1/2 gallons.
