How this calculator works

Volume math: one gallon is 231 cubic inches, which covers 1.604 sq ft at 1 inch thick — so gallons = area × thickness ÷ 1.604. That's 12.8 sq ft per gallon at 1/8" and 25.6 at 1/16". Garage floor epoxy coatings are different animals, covering roughly 225 sq ft per gallon as a thin film. Add 10% for mixing losses and edge run-off.

Frequently asked questions

How much epoxy for a river table?

Measure the void, not the table: void length × average width × depth in inches ÷ 1.604 = gallons. A typical 6-ft river void (60" × 6" × 1.5") needs about 2.4 gallons of deep-pour resin, poured in lifts.

How much does epoxy resin cost?

Quality table-top and deep-pour epoxy runs $50–$150 per gallon kit (resin + hardener combined volume). Garage floor epoxy kits cover a 1-car bay for $50–$150; premium polyaspartic systems cost several times more.

Can I pour epoxy in one thick layer?

Only with deep-pour (casting) resin rated for it — typically 2–4" per lift. Table-top epoxy poured thick overheats, yellows, and can crack. Check your product's maximum pour depth and wait for each lift to gel.
