Bedec Multi Surface Paint Soft Gloss for Interior and Exterior

Manufactured by Bedec

Bedec Multi Surface Paint (MSP)® is a versatile, water-based, self-priming, and self-undercoating paint designed for interior and exterior applications. This all-purpose coating takes the guesswork out of painting by providing excellent adhesion to various substrates, making it ideal for DIY, trade, commercial, and industrial projects.

Developed in the 1990s, MSP set the standard for multi-surface coatings and remains a trusted solution for professional and home use. Its Class 1 Wet Scrub Rating ensures durability and long-lasting performance on high-traffic areas, while the soft gloss finish provides an elegant, easy-to-clean surface.

The advanced water-based formulation allows for fast drying and recoating, reduces odour during application, and is environmentally responsible, offering a safe and efficient solution for all painting tasks. Manufactured in the UK with consistent quality control, Bedec MSP delivers reliable results across multiple surfaces without needing separate primers or undercoats.
