How Many Coats Of Paint To Apply

7/24/2017

A lot of our clients inquire as to how many coats of paint are needed to paint a room or the outside of a house? A minimum of two coats of paint are needed. Especially with exterior painting. Most customers have the mindset; that it costs more to apply additional coats of paint; they fail to recognize value!

Paint manufacturers such as Benjamin Moore, PPG and Sherwin Williams state on all paint can labels two coats of paint. Paint is designed to hold up over time with two coats. Here at Pro Color Jax, we list in our proposals clearly; that each project includes two coats of paint.Two coats will outperform one coat in terms of longevity, protection, clean ability and color retention. There is no such thing as a good one coat paint job!

It is very common to see one coat of paint fail in a year. Some may assume, that if you’re house painting with the same color on the exterior; that only one coat is needed, visually it looks ok when applied. Once having applied that first coat of paint, it is easy to declare it complete. Applying a second coat of exterior paint can be repetitive or redundant and your inclined to skimp. Don’t do it!

A one coat exterior painting process paint will fail and you won’t get the proper UV protection and durability that you should expect. In most cases it costs 30% more initially to apply the second coat; but it will last five times as long as two coats. Like most things in life, you get what you pay for.
