ColourDrivve Painting Expert share here Here the different types of paints used:
  • Oil-Based Paints
Oil-based paints are popular choice when you’re intent on achieving a glossy look. Oil-based paints are extremely popular for woodwork and furniture. These days water based products which provide an oil finish such as waterborne enamels or waterborne alkyds have been introduced. If you want to switch over to oil based paints from water based ones, clean the surface with the help of detergents before applying the coat of oil-based paint.

Advantages of oil-based paints
  1. Appealing gloss and shine
  2. Good leveling and a smooth finish
  3. Extremely Durable
  • Primer
Primer is usually not considered a paint, but is a very important element in painting projects as it acts as the preparatory coat. Primer ensures better adhesion of the paint on the surface. Primer can also be either water or oil based. Whenever taking up a new project make sure both the paint and primer are of the same base. Never mix the bases as the paint might fail to stick on it.
  • Enamel
Enamel is an oil-based paint and the name is given due to its hardness and durability. These paints are glossy and are mostly used paint around the edges of windows, doors and furniture’s. Enamels discolor over time
  • Acrylic
Acrylic is a water based house paint and the main ingredient used here for binding is acrylic. Acrylic paints have different varieties like acrylic latex, acrylic enamel or acrylic enamel-latex.
  • Water Based Paints
The majority of paint sold these days are water-based paints but oil based paints still remain a popular choice for woodwork, doors and furniture. When switching from oil based paints to water based ones, make sure that the oil coat is removed as the water based paints might not stick to it. When switching paints, wash and roughen the surfaces to prevent the new coat from peeling.
