Calculate With Paint Calculator Below
How to use paint calculator
Let's understand with the help of an example, how to use the above paint quantity calculator
Assumptions for Example
- Perimeter of Internal wall length Wise = 20 m = l
- Perimeter of External wall length Wise = 30 m = b
- Height of wall = 5 m = h
- Carpet Area = 20 m2 = A
- Window (Length, Width, Quantity) = (2 m , 2 m , 1)
- Door (Length, Width, Quantity) = (3 m , 2 m , 1)
- Putty consumption for 2 coat = 1.3 m2/Kg
- Primer consumption for 1 coat = 9 m2/L
- Paint consumption for 2 coat = 6.5 m2/L
Paint calculation procedure
Let's understand with the help of an example, how to use the above paint Calculator for Wall
Step 1: Calculation of Surface Area to be Painted
- Surface Area=(((l +b) x h)+A -(Area of window +Area of Door))
- = ((20+30)x5 + 20 - (2x2x1) - (3x2x1)) = 260 m2
Step 2: Calculation of Amount of Putty
- Amount of Putty for 2 coat = Surface Area / 1.3
- = 260 / 1.3
- = 177 Kg
Step 3: Calculation of Amount of Primer
- Amount of Primer for 1 coat = Surface Area / 9
- = 260 / 9
- = 25.55 L
Step 4: Calculation of Amount of Paint
- Amount of Paint for 2 coat = Surface Area / 6.5
- = 260 / 6.5
- = 40 L
Final Result
- Surface Area to be Painted = 230 m2
- Amount of Putty = 177 Kg
- Amount of Primer = 25.55 L
- Amount of Paint = 36 L

Construction Management ⚡️
With Onsite, #1 Construction Project
Management Software
We were looking for construction management software that could help us share clear project updates with clients. With Onsite, all the progress and cost details are visible in one place. It’s made client discussions much smoother because we’re now talking with actual site data instead of guesses.
Mr. Manish Kumar, Founder
Reidius Infra, Jaipur, India
Design & Build Construction company
Managing site teams and tracking work across projects was becoming difficult. With Onsite site engineers and project managers track progress in one place. We no longer depend on scattered updates to understand what is happening on site.
Mr. Kathirvel, Founder
Theeran Avant, Erode, Tamil Nadu, India
Mechanical Construction company
We needed a software to track construction expenses and control project costs. Onsite helped us monitor spending at activity level instead of discovering overruns later. As a construction ERP software, it brought financial visibility closer to daily execution.
Mr. Hiren Patel, Founder
DCC, Mumbai, India
Civil Construction Company
Earlier, sharing reports with clients and vendors required manual effort. With Onsite, we generate and share structured PDF reports directly from project data. It works reliably as a construction reporting software without confusion between site and office numbers.
Mr. Mohammad Taqi, Founder
Hydro Master, Qatar
Interior & Building Construction Company
We were searching for construction software where reports actually match site activity. Since using Onsite, project data and cost records remain consistent. Report analysis is clearer, and decisions are based on real execution instead of reconciled spreadsheets.
