What it is for, in the maker's words: “Substrates Doors / Windows / Exterior Wood / Interior Wood / Metal / PVCu” (Crown Trade Fastflow Quick Dry Eggshell product page, read 11 October 2026).

The woodwork of a 3 × 4 m room (one face of a door and its architrave, a window's frame and board, and the skirting: 3.73 m²) needs 0.547 L: 1 × 1 L to buy.

## Coverage

Crown Trade states up to 15 m² a litre. The maker's words: “Up to 15m² per litre on smooth surfaces”.
- Bare, rough or absorbent surfaces: A maker's coverage is their best case, on a smooth sealed surface: bare, rough or absorbent wood takes more. Crown Trade's own words: “Up to 15m² per litre on smooth surfaces”.
- A strong change of colour: Crown Trade says: “Certain colours may require additional coats to give complete obliteration”. Each extra coat is the paint of one coat again.
- Waste and touch-ups: The room table adds 10% for what stays in the tray and on the brush and for touching up: BuildBatch's generic example, not the maker's. The tin-by-tin figures add nothing.
- Doors, windows and skirting of another size: The table counts one door, one window and skirting 119 mm high with an architrave 69 mm wide, the planner's typical sizes. Panelled doors, deep skirting, more doors or a radiator take more: the planner counts your own.
