ProjectCalc ® Plus MX User’s Guide — 7
Note on DIY Project Keys: For most problems, the DIY
Project Keys will also find the Coverage Area given an
entered Quantity. For example, you can find the Coverage
Area of Paint given “X” Number of Litres/Cans.
The ProjectCalc Plus MX uses the standard (default) set-
tings or material sizes listed below. However, six (6)
material settings can be customized (indicated with an
asterisk*), meaning, they allow you to store values other
than the defaults: Blocks, Bulk Bags, Paint, Studs,
Custom Tile and Wallpaper.
