Product Information

No matter the surface, preparation is a hugely important part the process. Before painting, you must ensure the surface is sound & clean.

Second is to make your brush slightly wet with water from time to time, so having a scuttle or mug with a little of water will be useful. It makes the gloss flow a lot easier. Just make sure to not do it too often, or too much water, as this gloss run like water anyway. Well, our white spirit adventure has sadly come to an end. We hope this look at white spirit has helped you understand this handy solvent. Whenever you’re decorating, it is always worth having a bottle of white spirit (or another paint thinner) on hand for cleaning brushes. It makes cleaning tasks easier and can be used to thin paints carefully too. Opacity of the gloss is poor. However, opacity of the primer makes up for it! You can apply multiple coats of either product in a day and the ease of use is brilliant. The best thing about Teknos Futura 90 is, unlike most other hybrid or water-based gloss paints, it has an incredibly high sheen level. It’s very durable too!! Eggshell paints are closer in sheen to satinwood, but are a little more matte. Again, these are better suited to walls and ceilings as they aren’t as durable as satinwood. What do I need to consider when choosing a satinwood paint?Oil-based gloss paints more often then not are two-coat systems. This comprises of an undercoat, which is usually a separate product and a topcoat of the gloss emulsion. Some products such as Dulux Once Gloss are one-coat oil-based gloss paints, although this is a specially designed formulation due to the long recoat time of oil-based paints. Q. Is oil based gloss waterproof? This has caused a problem for artists looking for a colder white with transparent qualities, Williamsburg Porcelain White could be used as a replacement for artists seeking these working qualities from a paint.

As well as sheen, paints also come in two broad forms; water-based paint and oil-based paint. These forms vary on the solvent they use to dry the paint, as oil-based paint uses solvents to dry the paint, with water-based uses almost all water. Oil-based paint dries harder, achieves less brush strokes and has more durability. Water-based paint on the other hand does not yellow when using white like oil-based paint, contains lower VOC's and has a much faster drying time of a matter of hours. These are key reasons why oil-based paints are used on woodwork & metal only, while water-based paints are used when painting interior walls & ceilings, as well as woodwork & metal. Traditionally oil-based paints were favoured for woodwork and other parts of interior and exterior trim, although today many opt for water-based paints as the technology has caught up with the quality of oil-based paints in recent years. This Dulux paint will usually only need one or two coats, and is ready to recoat after six hours, meaning you can easily complete a decent-sized painting project in under a day. Cleaning up is a cinch, too. Given the great sheen and decent coverage, you may be surprised to hear that this satinwood paint is actually water-based, meaning brushes and rollers can be cleaned with just soapy water. After this, you can swap the white spirit for water and give the brush a good clean. The water should be warm, and you can add soap too.Williamsburg’s Titanium White was much creamier, with that lovely soft butter feel so often talked about, it also had a slight sheen, seeming almost pearly when first squeezed out. You have the traditional oil-based gloss, which turns yellow over time. Water-based gloss, which stays white forever, but generally leaves a substandard finish. Then hybrid gloss, which is a compromise between oil and water. As you may guess now that you’re an expert in paint thinners, you can use white spirit, turpentine and methylated spirit pretty much interchangeably. All of them are alternatives to each other. The pros are likely to have a preferred choice but would likely grab any of these paint thinners in a pinch. So the alternatives to white spirit are the other paint thinners that we have discussed in the article. As they dry slower, they can achieve less brush strokes and can be easier to work around on the surface To prevent paint yellowing, seal the finish. Sealing the paint with a waterproof sealant (such as exterior polyurethane) will prevent moisture or water from affecting it. This prevents paint from changing its color.
