Enamel Paint

Category:

This type of paint is produced by adding lead or zinc to varnish. Pigments are added to achieve a wide variety of colors. Enamel paints form hard and glossy coatings, which are easily cleaned. They are characterized by being waterproof and chemically resistant, offering good coverage and color retention.

The following are some common uses of enamel paint:

  • Interior and exterior walls
  • Wood trims, doors, and flooring
  • Windows
  • Stairs
  • Surfaces like wicker, masonry, concrete, plaster, glass, and metals.

The main limitations of enamel paint are slow drying, and requiring a titanium coating before application.
