FAQs

Can I use this paint indoors?

No, this paint is specifically formulated for exterior use. Its weather protection and durability properties are optimized for outdoor conditions and may not be suitable for indoor applications.

How long does the paint take to dry?

As a quick-dry, water-based formula, it typically dries to the touch within 1-2 hours. Recoat times are usually around 4-6 hours. Always check the specific instructions on the paint can for exact timings, as these can vary with environmental conditions.

Do I need to use a primer with this paint?

For optimal adhesion and durability, a suitable primer is recommended for bare wood, rusted metal, or heavily stained uPVC. On previously painted, sound surfaces, thorough cleaning and light sanding may be sufficient, but always check the can's specific guidance.

How should I clean my painting tools after use?

Since it is a water-based paint, brushes and rollers can be easily cleaned with warm soapy water immediately after you finish painting.

What kind of finish is 'satin'?

A satin finish provides a subtle, low-sheen appearance. It's less reflective than gloss but has more depth than a matte finish, offering an elegant and modern look.

Can this paint be applied over existing gloss paint?

Yes, but for best results, the existing gloss paint should be thoroughly cleaned and then lightly sanded to create a 'key' for the new paint to adhere to. Remove all sanding dust before painting.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering or peeling prematurely.

Ensure surfaces were meticulously cleaned, dry, and properly prepared (e.g., sanded, primed if needed) before application. Poor adhesion often stems from inadequate surface preparation or painting over loose material.

Bubbles or an uneven finish appearing after drying.

Apply thin, even coats to avoid over-application. Ensure you are not over-brushing the paint. Apply within recommended temperature ranges to allow for proper drying and leveling.

Mould reappears despite using mould-resistant paint.

Before painting, existing mould must be thoroughly cleaned and treated with a fungicidal wash. The paint resists *new* mould growth but does not eliminate existing spores embedded in the surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional 6-year weather protection and long-lasting durability.
  • Highly versatile for application on exterior wood, metal, and uPVC.
  • Mould-resistant formula helps maintain a clean appearance.
  • Flexible paint film minimizes cracking and peeling.
  • Water-based for easier cleanup and quicker drying.
  • Provides an attractive satin finish.

Cons

  • Thorough surface preparation is crucial for optimal adhesion and finish.
  • Satin finish may not be preferred for all aesthetic choices.
  • May require multiple coats for significant color changes or over dark surfaces.

Setup

  1. Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose dirt, dust, and grease. Remove any flaking paint. For bare wood, sand lightly. For bare metal, remove rust and prime with an appropriate metal primer. For uPVC, clean thoroughly.
  2. Stirring: Before use, stir the paint thoroughly to ensure an even consistency and color.
  3. Application: Apply with a brush or roller. For best results, apply in thin, even coats. Avoid painting in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.

Compatibility

This paint is suitable for exterior wood, metal, and uPVC surfaces. It is not recommended for use on surfaces subjected to heavy foot traffic, such as decking or floors, or interior use.

Care

  • Cleaning Tools: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm water and a mild detergent.
  • Storage: Store paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
