1) How much paint would you buy for 2 coats?
2) What finish would you use for main vs trim colors?
I took the following measurements:
Main Color:
Perimeter = 231'
Exterior wall height = 18'
4158 square feet
+ Chimney: 12'x6'x3'
+ Columns(3): 3'x1'
Trim Color:
Soffits/facia = 2' 3" x 222' = 511 sqft
Garage Doors (2) = 9'x7' = 63 sgft
Overhang: 138 sqft (105 sqft + 22 sqft + 11 sqft)
Window & door recesses (44) x 3" = 132"/12 = 11'*
Columns(3): 5'x1'= 5
728 square feet
*Not sure I'm doing the numbers correctly on the window & door recesses. I have 44 openings of various sizes with 3" recesses. Is it truly necessary to measure each opening or how you estimate otherwise?
