Typically approximately 60g / m² per coat with 5% dilution in water.

Detailed answer

For 2K lacquer, calculate the consumption per coat. Generally, it is about 60 g/m² per coat with around 5% dilution in water. In practice, two coats are often applied, so always multiply the calculation by the number of coats and add a reasonable allowance for losses during rolling.

Common mistakes

  • calculating material without allowance
  • not accounting for substrate preparation and tools
  • comparing prices without the same coat structure
