How to Estimate Your Project Cost
The 15% waste factor accounts for mixing losses, spillage, and the small amount that clings to mixing vessels. For large projects with careful mixing, 10% is sufficient.
Project Cost Estimates by Table Size
Estimates assume two full coats of tabletop epoxy at 3 mm per coat (≈ 6 ml/100 cm²) plus 15% waste.

|---|---|---|---|
| Small side table (60 × 60 cm) | 0.5 L | £29 | £46 |
