AMOUNT OF PAINT REQUIRED FOR A GIVEN is impossible to give a rule that will apply in all cases, as the amountvaries with the kind and thickness of the paint, the kind of wood or othermaterial to which it is applied, the age of the surface, etc. The followingis an approximate rule: Divide the number of square feet of surface by200. The result will be the number of gallons of liquid paint required togive two coats; or, divide by 18 ant] the result will be the num
