Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint 5.0 kg

Q: What surfaces can I apply Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint to?

Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint is designed for concrete balconies, terraces, screeded surfaces, masonry render, communal walkways, and roof terraces. It also adheres well to previously painted balcony surfaces in sound condition. The substrate must be clean, dry, and structurally sound before application. It is not recommended for asphalt, self-levelling screeds, or natural stone with protruding aggregate.

Q: Does Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint provide reliable slip resistance?

The separately supplied silica additive creates a textured finish when fully mixed into the paint before application. Stir periodically to keep the grit distributed. Grip depends on preparation, wear, cleaning and conditions; the coating does not guarantee grip on ice, frost, algae or other contamination.

Q: Can Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint be used outdoors in all UK weather?

It is intended for exterior use on suitable prepared surfaces. Follow the product's application conditions and curing instructions; do not apply to a damp surface or assume the coating makes ice or contamination safe.

Q: How many coats of Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint are recommended?

Two coats are recommended for most balcony surfaces, applied at right angles to each other for full coverage and consistent anti-slip texture. High-traffic communal walkways or heavily exposed roof terraces may benefit from a third coat for maximum durability and grip.

Q: Is primer needed before applying Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint?

A separate primer is not generally required on sound, prepared surfaces. On highly porous concrete or screeded substrates, apply a diluted first coat with up to 10% clean water to improve adhesion and penetration before applying full-strength coats.

Q: How much area does one tin of Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint cover?

Coverage is approximately 6–8 m² per litre per coat. A 5 L tin covers around 15–20 m² with two coats, a 10 L tin covers approximately 30–40 m², a 20 L tin covers up to 65 m², and a 1000 L IBC tank covers up to 3,250 m² — ideal for large multi-unit residential and commercial projects.

Q: How long does Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint take to dry and cure?

Follow the current manufacturer or product-label drying and curing instructions before reopening the area. Temperature, humidity, ventilation and film thickness affect drying; touch dry is different from fully cured. Confirm the schedule before planning access.

Q: Is Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint low-odour and safe for occupied buildings?

It is a water-based coating for its listed uses. Low odour does not remove handling precautions. Follow the label and safety sheet, provide ventilation and use the specified protective equipment. Keep children and pets away during application and curing.

Manufactured by Extreme Paints

Why Choose Our Products?

Silica-textured coating for balconies and walkways.

Durable finish resists foot traffic and weather exposure.

Textured finish for suitable balcony floors and terraces.

Manufactured in the UK.

Extreme Anti-Slip Balcony Paint is a water-based acrylic coating for suitable prepared balconies, terraces and walkways. It provides colour and a textured finish when used on a compatible, correctly prepared surface.

Each pack includes base paint and a separate silica anti-slip additive. Mix the complete supplied additive into the paint before application and stir periodically to keep it evenly distributed.

Check the listed substrates, coverage and curing instructions below. Keep the surface clean and maintained; a textured coating does not guarantee grip on ice, frost, algae or other contamination.

Suitable substrates

Concrete & screed: balconies, terraces and roof terraces
Masonry render and prepared mineral surfaces
Communal walkways and access decks
Previously painted surfaces in sound, well-adhered condition

Not recommended for asphalt, self-levelling screeds, or natural stone with protruding aggregate. Always test a small, inconspicuous area on unfamiliar surfaces first.

Coverage & spread rate

6–8 m² per litre per coat, depending on surface porosity
5 L ≈ 15–20 m² (two coats)
10 L ≈ 30–40 m² (two coats)
20 L ≈ up to 65 m² (two coats)
1000 L IBC ≈ up to 3,250 m² (two coats) — ideal for multi-unit residential and commercial projects

Apply two thin coats at right angles for a uniform finish and consistent anti-slip texture.

Drying and reopening the area

Confirm the current product-label drying and curing schedule before planning foot traffic or normal balcony use. Follow the manufacturer instructions for recoat intervals and rain protection. Touch dry is different from fully cured, and cool or damp conditions can extend drying.

Storage & clean-up

Store between 5 °C and 30 °C, frost-free (water-based coatings must not freeze). Reseal tins firmly between uses. Clean brushes, rollers and equipment with warm soapy water while the paint is still wet — no harsh solvents needed.

Safety notice

This is a low-VOC (< 100 g/L), water-based, low-odour coating. Apply with adequate ventilation, avoid skin and eye contact, and keep children and pets off the surface until fully cured. For full PPE and handling guidance, see the product Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

Note: occasionally packaging may arrive slightly damaged. Please don't order if this won't satisfy you.

Surface preparation
The surface must be clean, dry and structurally sound. Remove all dirt, grease, algae, moss and any loose or flaking coatings. Treat biological growth with a suitable biocidal wash and allow it to work before rinsing. On concrete and screed, make sure the surface is fully cured, then remove laitance, dust and contaminants by light mechanical abrading or sweeping; fill and repair any cracks and let repairs cure fully. Moisture content should be below 15% before application. Lightly key smooth, sealed or previously painted surfaces so the paint can grip.

Mixing
Pour the complete separately supplied silica anti-slip additive into the base paint. Mix thoroughly with a paddle mixer for at least 2 minutes until the additive is evenly dispersed, then stir again occasionally during use to keep the grit suspended. Do not shake, as this introduces air bubbles. Once the additive has been mixed in, the coating is ready to apply — apply by brush or roller; obtain manufacturer confirmation before using a spray method.

First coat
Apply a thin, even coat using a brush or medium-nap roller. Cut in the edges first, then work the main area, keeping a wet edge to avoid lap marks and taking care to avoid puddling in low spots.

Second coat
After 2–4 hours at 18 °C, apply a second thin coat at right angles to the first pass. This ensures complete coverage, consistent colour and a uniform anti-slip texture.

Optional third coat
For high-traffic communal walkways or heavily exposed roof terraces, a third coat can be applied once the second has fully dried, for extra durability and grip in the busiest areas.

CuringFollow the current product label for rain protection, foot traffic, normal use and full curing. Confirm the schedule before planning access; cool or damp conditions extend drying.

Clean-up
Clean all brushes, rollers and equipment immediately after use with warm soapy water while the paint is still wet — no harsh solvents needed. Dispose of waste and rinse water per local environmental regulations; never pour into drains or watercourses.
