Armstead Trade

Armstead Trade supplies decorators with practical, high volume paints. The range includes Armstead Trade vinyl matt emulsion in white and magnolia in 5L and 10L tins, quick dry gloss in brilliant white, high gloss in strong base, Pliolite masonry paint in brilliant white and strong base, and Armstead undercoat.

A trade white emulsion paint is a straightforward choice for painting large areas such as new-build walls, ceilings and rental properties. Armstead vinyl matt white gives a flat finish that hides small flaws, and the trade matt white emulsion is quick to apply. Trade gloss paint covers doors, frames and skirting, with an undercoat beneath for a smooth, opaque finish. Pliolite masonry paint is made for exterior walls.

Choose tin sizes by area, as larger tins are better value for whole rooms or full houses. Prepare walls thoroughly and use a mist coat on new plaster. Strong base tins are for tinting, so ask your supplier about colour mixing. Apply in good ventilation and leave each coat to cure before recoating.
