Frequently Asked Questions About This Product
Which brush do I need?
For applying acrylic paint and lacquer, it is important to choose the right brush. The right brush ensures the lacquer is applied evenly, with optimal absorption and release. We believe the VP Synthetic Brush contains the right synthetic fibres for the best result. This brush is made up of various fibres, combining a selection of synthetic fibres.
Which roller do I need?
When using a roller, it is important to achieve a smooth and even finish. You don’t want to be picking lint out of your paintwork. Absorption and release are essential here. We recommend using the VP Superflock Acrylic Roller for working with acrylic lacquer or paint.
When should I use this product?
Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss is suitable for protecting all indoor woodwork, such as doors, stairs, and window frames. Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss is an easy-to-apply product for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. For any indoor application where scratch and wear resistance is required, combined with resistance to skin oils, Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss provides the perfect high-gloss finish.
What are the benefits of water-based lacquer?
For indoor projects, acrylic lacquer is the ideal product. This lacquer does not produce unpleasant odours during application in your home, and because it does not contain white spirit, your colours will not yellow over time. Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss is a new generation of indoor lacquer from Sikkens with very pleasant application properties, delivering the same quality without the addition of white spirit.
Why is it wear and scratch-resistant?
Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss is one of the most wear and scratch-resistant products on the market. It can even be applied to stairs and floors. You certainly don’t want a paint or lacquer that isn’t fully scratch and wear-resistant, leading to unsightly wear marks on stairs or floors. In addition to being extremely wear and scratch-resistant, Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss is also resistant to skin oils, ensuring the lacquer remains intact and lasts much longer than standard indoor paints.
What is the coverage per m²?
The coverage of Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss is 12 to 16 m² per litre. However, our experience is slightly different, as most painters achieve a coverage of 10 to 12 m² per litre with Sikkens lacquer. It’s better to have a little too much paint than too little. Of course, you can always pick up Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss in our store if you’re just 0.5 litres short. Ordering Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss online is also no problem; we deliver quickly to your home at the best online price.
What prevents yellowing?
Because Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss is acrylic-based, this product does not yellow indoors. This makes it particularly suitable for lacquering doors and window frames indoors. You certainly don’t want to see yellow stains like in the past.

We can mix any possible colour with our mixing system. To mix your desired colour, you can simply select the colour in our colour picker or contact us. For mixing Sikkens paints and lacquers, we exclusively use the official Sikkens mixing machine, including the corresponding mixing pigments.

Which gloss level do you recommend?
High-gloss lacquers for indoor use have become increasingly popular in recent years. Customers want to combine not only colours but also gloss levels. With Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss, you can endlessly combine to make your home unique.
A high-gloss lacquer should have a gloss level of 60 to 90. A satin finish has a gloss level of 30 to 60, and a matt paint should remain below 30. These values are measured by the manufacturer. In some cases, we recommend a satin lacquer. This is advised when the surface is not 100% smooth. Inexperienced DIYers also often choose satin lacquer, as it is easier to hide small imperfections in the surface.
High Gloss (60-90): Ideal for outdoor work
Satin (30-60): Ideal for surfaces with imperfections
Matt Paint (less than 30): Ideal for indoor work
Which primer do I need?
To provide the correct primer advice, we always need to know the surface. This could be bare wood, plastic, or metal. Below is an overview of which primer should be used under Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss for perfect adhesion.
Bare wood: Bare wood should always be treated first with the Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto Primer. This high-quality primer is part of the Rezisto system for good adhesion. After this, apply 1 to 2 layers of Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss.
Old paint layer (acrylic): Is there already paint on the stairs or door? No problem. If it is water-based, you can finish directly with Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss without a primer.
Old paint layer (white spirit-based): Is there an old paint layer on the frames, and it is so outdated that it must be white spirit-based? In this case, first apply the Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto Primer before finishing with Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss.
Plastic: Plastic must always be pre-treated with a multiprimer. After applying a multiprimer, you can finish with Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss.
Metal: Metal also always requires a special primer, which is a multiprimer. After this, you can finish with Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto High Gloss.
Are there alternatives?
Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto Semi Gloss: This is a similar lacquer that can be used both indoors and outdoors due to its anti-yellowing properties. Did you know that all white spirit-based paints used indoors without “anti-yellowing properties” will always yellow? Be mindful of this. This Semi Gloss has a different gloss level and sits between high gloss and satin.
Sikkens Rubbol BL Rezisto Satin: The most ordered Sikkens indoor lacquer at the moment. Like its high-gloss counterpart, it is extremely wear and scratch-resistant but with a satin finish.
VP Platina Aqua Gloss: This product is similar to the Aqua Satin from our own brand. It is also a water-based indoor lacquer with a good price/quality ratio. This lacquer has the highest gloss level, making it a high-gloss lacquer that reflects light beautifully and enhances your chosen colour.
