Aerosol vs Bulk Paint (5 gallon pails)
Cost Comparison Example
Paint needed to stripe 1 soccer field with aerosol: 1 case
Paint needed to stripe 1 soccer field with "Pro-Stripe" paint: 1 ½ gallons
Dilute "Pro-Stripe" 1:1
(1 ½ gallons paint with 1 ½ gallons of water: 3 gallons total)
Aerosol Budget
100 cases x $37.35 = $3735.00
"Pro-Stripe" Budget
Regular White (150 gallons) x $7.19 = $1,078.50
Total Savings = $2656.50
With these figures, you should be able to buy paint plus a striper and still have money left in your budget.
Multiply the number of aerosol cases you use by 1.5 to get the total number of equivalent gallons for bulk paint.
Then multiply the number of gallons by the gallon cost.
