    The document discusses different types of paints and their coverage rates when used with various application methods like roller, brush, and spray. It also provides an example calculation of determining the unit rate per square meter of emulsion paint work on a plastered wall, accounting for material and labor costs based on application with a roller. The total cost of the paint work per square meter in this example is RM4.90.

    Determine the unit rate per square metre (M2) of emulsion paint to plastered
    wall consist of 1 sealer coat and 2 finishing coats of emulsion paint using
    roller basing on the following information:
    – Price of sealer/5 liters is at RM57.00/ 5 liters and 1st Grade emulsion 
    paint at RM60.00/ 5 liters
    – Cost of roller per coat per M2 of paint work is RM 0.01
    – Paint coverage shall base on manufacturer’s recommended
