1. What is SPO Radiator Paint used for?

SPO Radiator Paint is a water-based enamel specifically designed for hot water radiators. It resists high temperatures, prevents peeling or discolouration, and offers a sleek, professional finish.

2. Can I use this paint on other hot surfaces?

Yes. While intended for radiators, it can be applied to similar surfaces exposed to moderate heat, such as pipework. Always ensure the area is clean, well-prepped, and free from rust or previous flaking paint.

3. How do I apply SPO Radiator Paint?

Use a brush or short pile roller for smooth, even coverage. Make sure the radiator is turned off and cool to the touch. Clean and lightly sand if needed, then apply thin coats to achieve the best finish.

4. How long does it take to dry?

Typically, you can re-coat in about 3 hours. Factors like temperature, humidity, and the thickness of the application may affect drying times, so adjust accordingly.

5. Does it produce a strong smell?

No. This water-based enamel has a low odour, making it more pleasant to use in enclosed or frequently occupied spaces compared to solvent-based paints.

6. Will the paint discolour over time due to heat?

No. SPO Radiator Paint is heat-resistant and formulated to maintain its appearance, even on hot radiators. It helps prevent yellowing, peeling, or chipping, keeping radiators looking fresh.

7. How much coverage can I expect?

Coverage is approximately 13 m² per litre, depending on the surface condition. Lightly sanding and cleaning the radiator beforehand helps the paint adhere well and achieve maximum coverage.
