How much blackjack57

[TAnk7]

I am trying to find out how much blackjack 57 I will need for a 8x8 coop floor and going up the walls about a foot. Do I go with the 5 gallon bucket or would 1 gallon be enough? Thanks for your help!

Have you considered just using 2 coats of Porch and Floor paint? I picked up a can for $9 at Home Depot in the Oops paint section. It's holding up just fine.
If you have an appropriate leak free waterer in the coop and thick dry bedding, you don't need the expense of Blackjack 57.

You'd probably use... around a gallon and a half(-ish), depending on how thick your coats get and how high you go up the walls (nvm, 1' it is). Costwise I just went with the 5 gallon since at the time I would've had to have the smaller cans shipped, which would've cost the same or more than the big can.

No I hadn’t. Thanks for the suggestion

I would say about 1.5 - 2 gallons. I used a little more than 2 gallons for my 8 x 12 coop, doing 2 coats and about 12 inches up the walls.
