Interior Paint for Wall & Ceiling Decorating Projects

At The Paint Shed, we offer competitive pricing on a wide variety of quality interior trade paint. From popular paint colours to trusted primers, we’ve got every surface covered. Here’s what you can expect from our range.

Various Finishes

With so many options available, choosing the right interior paint can be confusing. Below, we’ve listed the main types of interior paint and what they’re commonly used for.

• Matt: Products like Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt are most reliable when you want a classic flat finish. This finish is suitable for low-traffic interior walls like living rooms and bedrooms, where a subtle, modern look is desired. 

• Eggshell: Paints like the non-yellowing Johnstone’s Trade Acrylic Durable Eggshell offer a soft sheen that enhances the colour and texture of interior walls. Usually seen in dining rooms and social spaces.

• Satin: This finish is usually recommended for skirting, trims and moulding and other surfaces you’ll need to wipe down once in a while. Try Dulux Trade Diamond Satinwood for a highly durable, quick-drying water-based formula.

• Semi-gloss: Products like Benjamin Moore Ultra Spec Scuff X Semi-Gloss provide a light sheen that boosts natural light. Often used in high-traffic areas like bathrooms, kitchens and on doors.

• High-gloss: You’ll commonly see high-gloss paints in public-facing, high-traffic or high-moisture areas. Options like Paint and Paper Library Architects Gloss deliver a tough, highly-reflective and sophisticated finish.

Functional Wall Paints & Primers

We also feature specially formulated wall paints suited to spaces that need extra care.

• Anti-bacterial and mould-resistant: Products like Crown Trade Clean Extreme Mould Inhibiting Matt help keep walls healthy and prevent mould growth in bathrooms or kitchens.

• Stain-blocking primers: Products like Zinsser B-I-N Primer seal stains, improve adhesion and provide a smooth base for topcoats.

• Zero-VOC, non-toxic paints: Brands like Farrow & Ball and Paint and Paper Library manufacture low-odour or low-VOC paints ideal for homes with children, pets or sensitive individuals.

Primers & Undercoats

We also supply a selection of primer/undercoat options to help make painting your walls and ceilings easier. Primers and undercoats are essential for ensuring optimal adhesion and finish:

• Primers: Seal the surface, providing a uniform base for topcoats, especially when painting over dark colours.

• Undercoats: Prepare the surface for the final coat, especially when changing colours or covering stains.

Our range includes fast-acting, water-based and quick-dry options for those painting in a hurry.
