# How much surface area can I cover with a jar of DANIEL SMITH Watercolor Ground?

1. For Titanium White, Mars Black or Buff Titanium - applied with 2mm thickness (about the thickness of a nickel):
   - One 4 oz jar covers approximately 10 square feet
   - One 16 oz jar covers approximately 41 square feet
2. For Pearlescent White, Iridescent Gold or Transparent - applied with 2mm thickness:
   - One 4 oz jar covers approximately 7 square feet

   Example:  A sheet of 22”x30” watercolor paper is 4.5 square feet, so a 4oz jar of (A) should cover 2 sheets; (B) should cover 1.5 sheets.
