BG Pool Calculator Estimate the right BG Pool coating quantity before checkout
Start with your pool measurements or its known water capacity. The guide estimates the internal paintable area, checks the existing surface and then shows how much BG Pool coating you require before you choose your colour.
Start With the Information You Already Have
Exact measurements produce the strongest estimate. When only the pool capacity is known, the volume option creates an approximate pool model so you can still begin.

From Pool Measurements to the Correct Paint Quantity
The calculator turns the information you know into a practical coating estimate, shows clearly how much paint you require and then takes you to the appropriate colour and product.
1. Describe the Pool
Use internal dimensions for accuracy, or start with water capacity when litres are the only figure available.
2. Match the Surface
After you choose a coating system, the calculator shows only the matching surface routes and then the correct coat choices for that route.
3. Choose Your Colour
Once you know how many kits or cans are required, choose your colour and continue to the matching BG Coatings product.
What the Quantity Guide Accounts For
The result helps you estimate a sensible pool coating quantity before placing your online order.
Internal Surface Estimate
Pool measurements are used to estimate the sloping floor, long walls and end walls. A normal application allowance is added when product quantity is calculated.
Remember to allow separately for:
Large steps, benches, ledges, repairs and heavily porous sections.
Product-Specific Result
The selected coating system and existing surface determine the matching paint quantity and whether any separate primer quantity is required.
Unknown coating?
The colour links stay hidden until the existing coating has been identified.
BG Pool Calculator Questions
Useful points to understand before using the estimate to choose your pool coating product.
Is the litres option as accurate as measuring the pool?
No. Water capacity cannot reveal the exact pool shape, wall area, steps or ledges. The volume option creates a typical rectangular model and should be treated as an approximate guide.
Which parts of the pool are included in the area estimate?
The measurement calculation estimates the internal floor and walls, including the change from shallow to deep depth. Additional features such as wide steps, benches, ledges, repairs and unusually rough areas need extra allowance.
Why do the available surfaces change after I choose a coating system?
The calculator only displays surfaces that match the selected BG Pool coating route. This prevents an incompatible surface from being treated as a normal ordering option.
Why do the coat choices change after I select the surface?
BG Coatings’ technical guidance uses different coat ranges for different coating systems and pool surfaces. The calculator changes the coat buttons to match the route you selected.
What happens if I do not know what coating is already on the pool?
Do not choose a replacement coating from appearance or colour alone. Identify the existing coating first or contact BG Coatings on 1300 894 994 before ordering.
Will I have to remember the calculated quantity when I choose a colour?
No. The ordering process is designed to carry the calculated quantity forward after you choose your colour and then open the cart with the matching product.
