"1 gallon kit" usually means 1 gallon total (½ gal resin + ½ gal hardener for 1:1), but some brands list each part; read the listing. Deep-pour kits are often 1.5 or 3 gallons because of 2:1 or 3:1 ratios.

FAQ

What size resin kit do I need for a tabletop?

Roughly 10 fl oz per square foot per ⅛" coat, plus 10–15%. A 24×48" table (8 sq ft) needs about 92 fl oz, so a 1 gallon kit.

Is a bigger kit cheaper?

Usually cheaper per ounce, but mixed resin has a shelf life of about a year once opened, so don't overbuy.
