Outdoor Paint Buyer’s Guide

But before choosing which outdoor paint you will buy, there are a few things you should take into consideration.

Choose outdoor paint according to the material

Not all outdoor paints can be used on all materials. You should therefore choose paint according to the material. In our range you will find outdoor paint for most materials such as wood, plaster, and metal.
Just remember that, when painting outdoors, you must first scrape, dry, and clean the surface, and make sure it’s in good condition. You should also use primer oil and primer if you have sanded down the surface so that the wood is visible. This way you ensure the best possible end result.

Let the environment inspire your choice of colour

Looking for a bright paint in an eye-catching shade or in a more muted tone? Something to keep in mind when choosing exterior paint is that the colour should work together with the shape and style of the house, as well as the surrounding environment.

Because the colour of the paint is perceived differently when applied to a larger surface, we suggest that you test paint with the colours you are interested in. That way it will be easier to see which shade is most suitable.
