Five-Step Planning Tool

Garage Paint Calculator & Color Planner

Measure walls and ceiling, see two-coat gallon ranges immediately, compare Ace's standard and workshop wall systems, choose colors and a floor pairing, then carry a validated plan into the installation estimator.

Step 1 of 5

Garage Dimensions and Openings

Wall area is perimeter times height. Measured garage doors, entry doors, and windows are subtracted; ceiling area is calculated separately.

Calculator method: gross walls = 2 × (length + width) × height; paintable walls = gross walls − measured openings; ceiling = length × width. Two finish coats use the published 350–400 sq. ft./gal range. Possible one-coat primer uses 200–300 sq. ft./gal. See the Sherwin-Williams paint calculatorfor the manufacturer's general planning tool.

Quantity

Separate Surface Math

Wall and ceiling totals stay separate because they use different products and finishes.

Condition

Primer Is Conditional

The calculator flags possible primer; Ace confirms the substrate-specific system on site.

Price

No Hidden Product Upcharge

The workshop system remains quote-only and never silently changes the public ballpark.
