How to calculate ceiling paint:

Step 1: Measure ceiling area

Simply multiply room length × width = ceiling area in m².

Step 2: Check paint coverage

Ceiling paint typically covers 10-12 m²/L. Check can label for exact coverage.

Step 3: Number of coats

  • Fresh white ceiling: 1 coat
  • Covering stains: 2 coats
  • Textured ceiling: 2 coats + 10% extra paint

Step 4: Use ceiling-specific paint

Ceiling paint is thicker and less likely to drip. Don't use wall paint!

💡 Pro tip: Paint ceilings BEFORE walls to avoid splatter damage!
