What is the weight of a powder coat paint job?

I need to determine the weight of a powder coat paint job.


All I know is the square footage of the paintjob (i.e. 6.6 sqft).


Any ideas?What is the weight of a powder coat paint job?
Do you know the density?What is the weight of a powder coat paint job?
There are least 7 different base materials/resins used for powder coating, and obviously, coating thickness of the job (can range from 25um to 80um depending upon the application) has a dramatic effect on the weight of the end result.





A pound of powder will typically cover between 50 and 100 square feet, so for your 6.6, I'd estimate anywhere between 1/16# and 1/8# of material.





Again, not knowing your specific power coat material and application, only a rough guess like this is possible.
