I am contemplating the purchase of an unfinished Sonex project - to try & get an idea of future costs, I would like to budget for painting. Please advise Sonex exterior surface area

Even Sonex dont know the answear - truly amazing!

FYI it seems that 32m2 will likely be a conservative figure, for those that wish to do an all over paint job.

Amount of paint required will vary with the type of paint, its thickness and means of application.

For sure David - but if you dont start with a know area to paint, how can you possibly decide on the quantity, of paint/undercoats/etc, to order.

Most paint suppliers will give you a coverage estimate eg 1L / 5 m2.

The 31+m2 figure came from another Forum contributor. I have come to figures between 27-29m2. So to be on the safe side (not to be short) when ordering I have decided to adopt 32m2
