The base inside one Set covers about 161-215 sq ft for two base coats, but the activator and sealer are smaller bottles.
TDS source: Base 6-8 m2/L for two coats; Activator 7-10 m2/L for two coats; Protettivo 8-10 m2/L per coat.
This updates only the Complete Set quantity. Individual refill bottles are temporarily reserved for set fulfillment, so contact ATRIA if this project needs extra activator or sealer.
TDS-based estimate only. Wild Rust consumption changes with substrate, desired oxidation intensity, spray/brush method, and protection requirements.
