Wood Paints – Durable, Weather-Resistant Coatings for Every Wooden Surface

Trade Supplies UK wood paints are suitable for a wide range of timber surfaces including garden sheds, fences, decking, wood floors, skirting boards, doors, and window frames. Each product is specially formulated for its intended surface, so always check the product description to ensure you select the right wood paint for your specific application.

Acrylic wood paints are water-based, quick-drying, and low in odour, making them ideal for exterior surfaces like sheds, fences, and decking. Oil-based wood paints, such as our satinwood range, take longer to dry but deliver a harder, more durable finish with a smooth semi-gloss sheen, making them better suited for interior joinery including doors, skirting boards, and window frames.

Yes. Our exterior wood paints are specifically formulated to withstand the challenging British climate, including heavy rain, frost, and prolonged UV exposure. Products such as the Extreme Anti-Slip Decking Paint and Acrylic Shed & Fence Paint provide weatherproof protection that resists peeling, flaking, and colour fade, keeping outdoor timber surfaces looking fresh and well-protected throughout the year.

For most surfaces, two coats are recommended to achieve full colour depth, even coverage, and maximum durability. Always allow each coat to dry fully before applying the next. On bare, porous, or previously unpainted timber, applying a suitable wood primer beforehand will improve adhesion significantly and extend the life of the finished paint system.

Once fully cured, our Extreme Anti-Slip Decking Paint provides a slip-resistant surface that is safe for use in family gardens and outdoor areas frequented by children and pets. The anti-slip texture significantly reduces the risk of slipping on wet decking.

All wood paints in the Trade Supplies UK collection are available in 5 L, 10 L, and 20 L containers to suit projects of any scale. The colour range is extensive, covering Greens, Blues, Greys, Blacks, White, Brown, Terracotta, Sandstone, Rustic Red, and more, ensuring you can find the perfect shade to complement your property and achieve the look you want.

Cleanup method depends on the product type. Acrylic and water-based wood paints can be cleaned from brushes, rollers, and equipment with warm soapy water immediately after use. Oil-based satinwood paints require white spirit for cleaning tools and equipment.
