Where can I use VP Concrete Paint?
VP Concrete Paint is suitable for finishing concrete and other stone surfaces that have been treated according to guidelines. This paint is easy to work with, making it suitable for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.
Why should I choose alkyd-based paint?
For outdoor jobs, alkyd paint is ideal. It stands up better to weather conditions, giving it a longer lifespan compared to water-based products. Indoors, alkyd paint can yellow over time. If you intend to use it indoors, look for an "anti-yellowing" formula to prevent discolouration.
What is the coverage area per m²?
The coverage of VP paints is 6 to 12 m² per litre. Typically, the average coverage is 10 to 12 m².
On old paint layers: Expect average coverage of 6 to 12 m² per litre.
Rough concrete: Coverage on rough concrete is higher, around 6 m² per litre. For the second coat, expect average coverage.
Stone: Coverage on stone is also higher, around 5 to 6 m² per litre. The second coat will use the average amount.
Cement floors: Cement surfaces absorb more paint, with a coverage of 8 m² per litre for the first coat. The second coat uses average amounts.
Self-levelling floors: Coverage is about 8 m² per litre for the first coat. The second coat uses less.
Floated concrete floors: For this, we recommend a different product.
Paving slabs: Coverage is 6 to 8 m² per litre for the first coat. The second coat uses average amounts.
What colours can this product be mixed in?
We can mix any colour using our system. Choose from a wide variety of RAL colours, such as RAL 9010, RAL 7016, or RAL 7021. Discover the differences between RAL 9001 and RAL 9010 on our blog. Choose colours from leading brands like Flexa, Histor, and Farrow and Ball.
What surfaces is this product suitable for?
This paint is suitable for multiple surfaces. For absorbent surfaces, always apply a primer first. Perfect for concrete, plaster, drywall, brick, Renovlies wallpaper, glass fibre wallpaper, masonry, interior walls, and exterior walls.
Surface preparation
Before starting, we recommend cleaning the surface with a product like St Marc degreaser. Whether treating concrete, wood, stone, or wallpaper, cleaning ensures optimal adhesion.
Which brush should I use for alkyd paint?
Using the right brush ensures the paint is applied evenly. We recommend the VP Platina Mix Fibre brush, made from a mix of traditional bristles and synthetic fibres, for the best result.
Which roller should I use?
For a smooth and even finish, use the Toptex wall paint roller. This roller has been tested as the best for working with wall paint and latex. Learn more about choosing the right roller for wall paint for your project.
Which primer should I use?
Primer and undercoat products do the same job, creating a good adhesive layer and saving costs on absorbent surfaces. A primer also allows for greater coverage per litre. For this product, we recommend VP Platina Multiprimer.
