<human>:  I need to figure out how much paint is necessary to redo my kitchen.
<bot>: To determine how much paint is needed to redo your kitchen, you will need to measure the walls to get the total square footage. Once you know the total square footage, you can calculate how many gallons of paint you need. Generally one gallon of paint covers about 400 square feet. You may also need to factor in extra paint for your ceilings and trim.
