DRAFTING ESTIMATION AND MATERIAL

BADIO, Norinza M.
BTVTED-DT 3RD YEAR

Estimate the quantity of paint of your house which includes: walls, roof, ceiling.

➔ WALLS: 12.2m x 16.5m = 201.3sq.m


➔ Smooth to fine - 40 sq. m Coverage area

No. of gallons = 201.3 sq. m. / 40 sq. m. / gal. = 5.03 gals x 2 coatings


= 10 GALLONS

➔ ROOF: 300sq.m
➔ Fine to Coarse surface - 37 sq. m Coverage area

No. of gallons = 300 sq. m. / 37 sq. m. / gal. = 8.10 gals x 2 coatings


= 16.2 GALLONS

➔ CEILING: 175sq.m
➔ Coarse to the rough surface - 30 sq. m. coverage area

No. of gallons = 175 sq. m. / 30 sq. m. / gal. = 5.83 gals x 2 coatings


= 11.66 GALLONS or 12 GALLONS

1. What is Acrylic paint? Give images and examples.

Acrylic paint is composed up of pigments dispersed in a solution of acrylic polymer and


resin. They are chemically based, which means that once dried, they become water-
resistant. Acrylic paints are currently the most popular.

Acrylic paint dries in a matter of minutes. If you're painting a tiny area, this may be
advantageous, but painting larger areas will be more challenging. It is incompatible with
oil-based paints and will not cling to a wall that has previously been painted with oil-
based paint.
2. What is Latex paint? Give images and examples.

Unlike other water-based paints, latex does not require any special preparation. It
is constructed of acrylic resin, similar to acrylic paint. Unlike acrylic, latex paint is
excellent for bigger expanses of paint. It's frequently purchased in bigger
amounts, not because it dries faster.

3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of oil base paint?

Advantages of oil:
● It goes on more smoothly.
● In one coat, it covers more fully.
● Less prone to shrinkage
● Because it takes longer to dry, you have more time to work.
● In high-traffic regions, it holds up nicely.

Disadvantages of oil:
● Over time, it's more prone to crack, fade, and yellow.
● The gases can be exhilarating at times.
● Brushes must be washed using cleaning chemicals such as mineral spirits
and turpentine. These dangerous compounds must be carefully controlled
(local facilities can be found in the phone book's government pages).

4. What are the advantages and disadvantages of water-based paint?

Advantages of water-based paint


● Clean-up is quick, and you don't need to use solvents - just wash your tools and
equipment with water.
● You won't need to use additives, hardeners, or thinners.
● They have excellent adhesion.
● They have better color retention than solvent-based paints.

Disadvantages Of Water-Based Paints


● Solvent-based paints are more tolerant of adverse weather conditions during the
curing process. Water-based paints take longer to dry in high humidity and lower
temperatures.
● Solvent-based gloss finishes have a higher sheen, but water-based keep its
sheen better throughout its lifetime.
● The finish is tougher and easier to clean but can become brittle with age.
