It is necessary to assume that there is no evaporation of the painting solution - 100% solids / volume.

It is known that 1 gallon of paint with no evaporation (100 % solids / volume) will
cover 1604 sq' at a thickness of 1 mil - this is regardless of the paint solution.

1604 sq' / 385 sq' is approx. 4166 micrometers - with no evaporation.
