how much do I need to do 2 coats on 50 sq.ft.

I used 1 qt to apply 3 coats on the outside of a 16' cedar canoe, plus, 3 coats on the interior. 30% thinner on the 1st coat, allow to dry to a tack,apply 2nd with 20% thinner. Let harden over night, then sand and apply 3rd coat with 10% thinner. Very pleased with the results.

Well it all depends if you are going to use it in the exterior or interior. I am assuming that it's for the exterior. 1000mm is equal to apprx real close to 1 quart. I would thin it out apprx 1/3 with thinner for the first coat and 1/4 thinner for the 2nd coat. PS. Important lightly sand with a fine thickness sand paper in between coats. I would just get 1 quart and if you should need extra get a second. 59 sq ft is not very much so 1 quart should sufice. RC get 2 quarts and that more than will do it. This is the best product I was able to find for my home in Costa Rica, which needless to say it doesn't rain it pours 3/4 pf the year. And it's been a;lmost 10 months or so since i applied it on the exterior of the cabin and it's not showing any wear at all. I highlyt recomment it. RC.

If you follow the directions on the can and thin it with a good brand of mineral spirits you will have more than enough from one can to do two coats on 50 sq ft. This varnish looks real good if applied properly.

It depends on a couple of things. If you thin the varnish (recommended) and the type of wood. Bare dry porous wood like an oak would take several coats of thinned just to penetrate. My best guess woul be one can thinned 50 / 50 to seal, being about 3 / 4 coats sanded between coats. It will take the most of another can full strength, 3/4 coats sanded between to get the classic result I have always experienced with this product. BTW, after a summer in the weather, my teak bench and chairs look like they are covered with a coat of thick ice. INCREDIBLE stuff!!!

I would get two. This stuff is very thick and goes fast. I did my basement floor and thought I had enough to do the whole thing, however I needed two full cans. When using, make sure you shake it up really really well. There is a sand grit to it which just sits on the bottom until you shake it. Then pour into a painters pan and spread around to make it even when you apply it.It works great, I love it and even outside it lasts. Best of luck.

If you are really diligent about applying the coats evenly, you could probably do two coats. I did a window seat and I could have stopped after two coats but needed one more coat for it to be dark enough to match the floors. I don't think you could get an even finish with one coat. Maybe test the inside of a cabinet door first to see if you like it. This color is really beautiful once you get it on.

I think a gallon should do the trick--I put 2 coats on the inside of a 13 foot Boston whaler with a gallon

Per Classic Store Fixtures...It depends on how big your coatsa are. These Top and Middle Hang-rails are 60 inches long and your average hanger is 1/2 to 1 inch wide, but you average coat is much thicker. I would say 40-50 coats per rail. Also Be carefull who you buy this rack from, there are many non commercial verisons of this rack being sold on Amazon. Many sellers say they carry the commercial version but they really do not. thanks Ben Elkins Classic Store Fixtures

The one gallon should give you 2 coats. Actually, you will "probably" have a little left over, but it depends on how thick it is applied. I've done 2 showers with this ...It REALLY works great.

Coverage: apply 2.0 to 2.50 gallons per roofing square (2 applications of 1.0-1.25 gallons per roofing square) (roofing square = 100 sq ft).SJS Commercial

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.

Yes, I've used it many times. I would recommend two light coats rather than one heavier coat.

I bought this sealer and the container says to apply two coats. Are two necessary?

Like the other 2 replies. A small bottle will be more then enough. You even may have over half of it left depending on the finish you are looking for. I put 4 to 5 coats on a stock and still have over half left. This was on stocks such as Rem 700 etc. Hope this was of help.

I got the 40 sq ft per gallon. I brushed it on and you have plenty of time to work it but definitely mix it well.

130 SF on a vertical surface. 200 SF on a horizontal surface. Coverage will vary based on the number of coats of finish that are being removed.20 layers of paint may require two applications.Bill FrykbergLogFinish.com

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

We loved this product and were able to cover approx. 3000 sq. feet with a double coat.

At least 3. I would do 2 or 3 coats. Prob 6 cans to do it right. Be sure to sand first.

Hello, Usually 24 and 25 sqft kits are sold to cover 4 medium doors (6sqft each door). I used a 25 kit to lay a double cover in a coupe, in order to get a strong midbass for competition. 50 sqft should be more than enough if you are going to use only one layer in each door. Good luck. Kind regards, Jean Pierre.
