How It Works

  • Measure the length and width of the area to be glued down.
  • Each 4-gallon bucket covers approximately 160 square feet.
  • The calculator divides total area by 160 and rounds up to ensure full coverage.

Example Calculation

Area: 25 ft x 100 ft = 2,500 sq ft
Calculation: 2,500 รท 160 = 15.62 buckets
Result: Round up to 16 buckets

Pro Tips

  • Always round up to ensure you have enough adhesive for complete coverage.
  • Concrete surfaces may require additional adhesive due to porosity.
  • Apply adhesive in sections to maintain workable coverage time.
  • Store unused buckets in a cool, dry place for future use.
