FAQs
Satinwood paint is a paint specifically formulated for use on wood surfaces. It is known for its smooth, satin-like finish, which adds a subtle sheen and a touch of elegance to painted woodwork. Satinwood paint is commonly used for interior applications such as doors, skirting boards, window frames, and furniture.
-
Surface Preparation: Ensure your surface is clean, dry, and free from any dirt, dust, or grease. Sand any rough areas or previous brush marks gently with fine-grit sandpaper, and then wipe away the dust with a clean cloth.
-
Choose the Right Brush: Select a high-quality synthetic bristle brush that is suitable for water-based paints. A brush with fine bristles will help you minimise brush marks.
-
Paint in Thin Coats: Apply thin, even coats of satinwood paint rather than trying to cover the surface in one thick layer. This allows the paint to self-level, reducing the appearance of brush marks.
-
Use Proper Brushing Technique: Start by dipping the brush about one-third into the paint and tap it gently on the side of the paint tin, helping to remove any excess
Satinwood paint is typically used on interior woodwork and furniture, predominately doors, skirting boards, mouldings and door frames.
