What paint

Look at Bedec Barn Paint.

http://www.bedec.co.uk/

Spend some time on the preparation, then the finish should last longer.

 

Great minds!

 

As above, brilliant paint. Picking some up this week to use over a previously creosoted fence, which Bedec claim will not cause an issue

No primer or undercoat needed, recoat in 4 hours and water based - unbeliavble !

White and black available in Semi Gloss, Matt, Satin

Shop around for best price, I'm paying £35 for 2.5lt (Essex)

Go for it jack

 

I've not used this before, would it be suitable for previously oiled windows and doors?

 

Is that Bedec Multi Surface paint better then Sikkens Rubbol BL Satura Mr K?

 

The Multi Surface Paint is a different paint.

The above suggestion is for Barn Paint.

 

Oh right cheers Phil..see what you mean m8.

 

Cheaper here, order two tins for free delivery.

Flipping expensive - must be good stuff

 

Is the Bedec Aqua Advanced Satin better then Sikkens Rubbol BL Satura Phil?

 

Thanks Phil but 2.5lt is plenty for my gate, so with postage, its more expensive

Plus I'm using a small independent decorating shop so nice to put money through their tills

 

I agree, I got a small independent DIY shop near me, I always buy from them instead of the Sheds for stuff at home, often they are cheaper as well.

 

I was thinking of Jack as you had all ready purchased yours.

 

Hi Jp.

Is this sikkens any good. I have posted a thread as I am looking to paint door architraves and frames and looking for a god quality paint to provide durability and retain white for longer.

Must of got you mixed up with DIY Dave, as he had mentioned the Sikkens range of products as well.

Thanks

 

I have posted a link to the stuff, if anyone is interested:

Plus I noticed they do it in Class white and white? not sure what the difference would be.

 

As many of the pro window companies are using Teknos Aquatop I've tried it for my project http://www.teknos.com/en-GB/industrial-coatings/industrial-wood/cladding/ and it's really good. I've been spraying it but there are instructions for brushing. You can buy it online or over the phone. Weirdly they seem to have stopped pushing their brilliant white (Aquatop 2600 GB1000) on the website but you can still buy it on the phone. I've literally just ordered 3l + 3l of aquaprimer - £89 inc delivered - it ain't that cheap

 

I went for the Sikkens in classic white.

Will let you know when the painter tries it.

 

Im using that sikkens on bits of my log cabin in graphite grey.

 

They didn't stock the 2.5l can of paint in classic white at decorating centre, but as a good will gesture they are sending out 3 x 1L cans.
