[latest latex paint price]
Latex paint is a good decorative material for walls and ceilings. As we all know, latex paint has always been the most commonly used decorative material for our interior decoration, and its decorative effect is beyond reproach and beyond doubt. General ceiling decoration and ceiling outer coating can be decorated with latex paint. But how much is latex paint per square meter? I believe that many friends who have never experienced decoration don’t know it. Here I will tell you how much latex paint is per square meter.
In general, the general price of latex paint for interior decoration is: 20-30 yuan/square meter. According to the brand of latex paint, the quality and environmental protection are different, the price is different, and the labor price is also different. There is also a price difference between a good master and an ordinary master. Let’s take a look at the price of latex paint in different situations.
1. Only make the base layer (including base layer putty and hanging ash): the general price is between 17-20 yuan/square meter. The price of small decoration companies is 17-19 yuan/square meter, while the price of larger decoration companies is 20 yuan/square meter. If we only do the base layer, our owner needs to find a master who can do the top coat and buy a top coat to paint.
2. Only make latex paint: If you make latex paint yourself, the labor cost of the master is about 5-7 yuan/square meter. In this case there is no all inclusive option. You can only buy latex paint materials at your own expense.
3. A full set of latex paint: latex paint materials and labor costs are included, and the price is between 20-30 yuan/square meter.
[Why the quotations of latex paint vary greatly]
When you consult for home improvement, you will definitely feel that the price of latex paint varies greatly. Some are about 8 yuan/㎡, some are about 15 yuan/㎡, and some are even about 40 yuan/㎡. Why does this happen? One reason is that there are so many brands of latex paint, and the processing technology and quality characteristics of the materials themselves vary widely. Yuan/barrel (18kg), mid-range brand latex paint 180-350 yuan/barrel (18kg), brand high-end latex paint 150-300 yuan/barrel (5kg).
The second reason is that the construction technology of latex paint can also be divided into high, medium and low grades, and the construction cost of different construction technology is also very different. For example, in the mid-range construction process mentioned earlier, if you use a brand mid-range latex paint, the reasonable quotation should be around 14-18 yuan/㎡. Another example is the high-end construction process, which requires a layer of polyester cloth or glass on the base, using a special finished latex paint putty, and then using a brand of high-end latex paint. In this way, the price must exceed 40 yuan/㎡. It is very common to deceive customers due to the large difference in quotations of latex paint in home decoration, so I would like to remind you to pay special attention.
【How to calculate the amount of latex】
At present, the packaging of paint latex paint on the market is basically divided into two specifications: 5 liters and 15 liters. Taking the 5 liter capacity commonly used in the family as an example, the theoretical painting area of 5 liters is 35 square meters for two coats.
1. Rough calculation method: ground area * 2.5/35 = number of barrels used;
2. Accurate calculation method: (length + width) * 2 * room height = wall area, length * width = top area, (wall area + top area – doors and windows + area)/35 = number of barrels used.
Taking a room with a length of 5m, a width of 3m and a height of 2.9m as an example, the indoor wall and ceiling latex paint painting area is calculated as follows:
Wall area: (5m+3m)*2*2.9m=46.4㎡
Top surface area: (5m*3m)=15㎡
Paint volume: (46.4+15)/35㎡=1.7 barrels
However, the current indoor latex paint is divided into two types: primer and top coat, which need to be purchased separately, so there is the following calculation formula:
The number of buckets of primer required = painting area / theoretical painting area of primer
The number of buckets of topcoat required = painting area / theoretical painting area of topcoat
