DIFFERENT KINDS OF PAINTS/ PAINT PRODUCTS

Latex Paints Latex paints are good in quality. They do not fade away easily and contains light odor or smell as compared to oil-based paints. Apart from this, latex paints do not peel off or crack. These paints are fast drying and require just water for thinning and clean up purpose.Enamels It is one of the oil based paint, but with better adhesion qualities. It is much durable and stain resistant and provides a smooth and cheerful effect to the surface. Available in dull and glossy finish, the paint can be used in both interior and exterior walls as well as furniture. The main advantage of enamels is that they dry without leaving any brush marks. Oil Based PaintsOil based paints are extremely durable and prove to be an excellent choice for inner walls. These paints require mineral spirits for thinning and clean up and are even slow drying. However, oil-based paints have a strong odor that might act as a disadvantage to their popularity.

Distemper Distemper is the most common and economical type of painting available today. It can also be called as whitewashing.Distemper is water based paint and contains chalk, lime, water and some coloring agents, if required.Emulsions Emulsions are also water based paints. The distinguishing factor about emulsion is that it provides a rich and matt finish to the interior walls. It also provides durability to the painted surface. Emulsions are fungus and mildew resistance, which helps in providing longer life to the walls. Emulsions are washable. As such, most of the stains in the wall can be removed by just wiping with a cloth dipped in a mild soap solution.Varnish Varnish is a paint that resembles oil paints, but does not contain color pigments like oil paints. Varnishes provide a transparent film when dry, unlike oil paints. The paint flows out after it has been applied, removing any brush marks. Made out of linseed oil and a fossil gum, it is ideal for furniture, floors and for exterior and interior woodwork.

Lacquer Lacquer is a paint made from nitrocellulose and gives a very quick-drying finish. This should not be applied over oil paints and varnishes, as it acts as a remover and softens the undercoat. It gives an ideal finish for metal work like brass, which would otherwise tarnish, if left alone.

They are also used for cleaning the equipment and tools employed in painting and for removing spatters of paint on affected areas.

PrimerThe first coat of paint applied over the surface. It seals the pores of materials, thereby preventing uneven absorption of the topcoat paint. The primer coat also ensures better adhesion of the topcoat to the painted area. In addition, metal primer inhibits rust.
