- mils are a unit of measure - 1 mil is 1/1000 of an inch thick - 75 mils is 75/1000 of an inch, or .075 inch
A mil is 1/1000 of an inch or .001. 15 mils is .015"
In the United States, One Mil is understood to be one one thousandth of an inch, or 0.001 inches. Mils are frequently used in measuring plastic, film, and sheet materials in applications that do not use the metric system.90 mils is equal to 0.090 inches, or 90/1000ths of an inch, which reduces to 9/100ths of an inch.However, fractional parts of inches are normally measured in powers of two (for example, 1/4 inch, 1/8 inch, 1/16 inch, and so on). In this case, we cannot get an exact answer, but we can come acceptably close.If using thirty-seconds of an inch (1/32), you can get pretty close to 90 mils. 3/32 of an inch is equal to 0.09375 inches, or approximately 94 mils. For most applications, that's probably accurate enough.For better accuracy than that, you would need to measure in 256ths. 23/256ths of an inch is approximately 0.0898 inches, which is within one mil tolerance of 90 mils.
It depends how thick your layer of paint is.
1 circular mil = 1 mil x 1 mil a=d2 so if a wire has a diameter of 80 mils, it has an area of 6400 circular mils.
How thick the paint is. A trash bag is .4 mils thick so 60 layers of that plastic would give you some idea of the thickness.
One mil is a thousandth of an inch, 20 mils would be a 50th of an inch.
Ensure that it is at least 4 mils thick and that you make it big enough that the underlying color will not affect your perception of the color.

64 mils are thicker. One mil equals 1/1000 inch, or 0.001 inches. 49 mils is 49/1000 = 0.049 inches. 64 mils is 64/1000 = 0.064 inches. Since 64 is larger than 49, an object 64 mils thick is thicker than an object 49 mils thick.
Square foot coverage can be calculated by dividing 1600 by the number of mils you are applying. In your case: 1600/8= 200sqft.gal For 2592 sqft you would need 12.96 gallons, so 13 gallons.
- mils are a unit of measure - 1 mil is 1/1000 of an inch thick - 75 mils is 75/1000 of an inch, or .075 inch
Normal wall paint should be applied at a thickness of 4 mils to dry down to approximately one mil thick. This is true with either oil or water-based coatings.
12 to 14 mils
Roughly 15.6 mils or 15.6 thousandths of an inch. Roughly, 1 gauge = .86 mils.
Most household paints are measured in Mils. One mi is about the thickness of a page from the phone book (Remember those?). The application rate is one measure - wet mils, while the resulting dry and cured coat is dry mils. A common specification is latex wall paint at 6 mils wet per coat for a 4 mil dry coverage.
That is approximately 18 teaspoons.
