PVA paint will do 10 m²/litre therefore 2 coats will be 5 m²/lt .. a room say 3 m x 3 m can be worked out as follows 3 x 2.5 x 3 .. 3 (lenth of wall) x 2.5 ( height to ceiling : average) x 3 (number of walls) .. there is normally a cupbord and door on the one wall ... so 22.5 m² is the area to be painted .. 22.5 divided by 5 (5 ²/lt) = 4.5 litres ...

A large tin should do about one room... Average room in a house. If you're house is really big, you might need up to 3 tins per room. And, depending if you want to paint it the same colour again, you might need 2 tins for an average room. One for a coating and x 1 for finishing off.

Firstly depends on the type of pain you buy, some more expensive paints cover a larger aria,
Measure the square meters of the floor, and take the height of the walls, multiply the SQM by the
Height, etc, now you have a good idea of the size, if it’s a standard room 4 walls not the roof
You should be able to cover all that with about 5 – 7 liters.

It is usually about 5L per room depending on how big, but the guys at the hardware will be able to give you more exact.
