What Type Of Paint Can Be Used On Radiators?Updated 8 months ago

For painting radiators, we recommended using Tikkurila's Helmi 10 or Helmi 30. Unlike all modern-day solvent-based paints, they are guaranteed not to yellow upon exposure to heat. If you are applying paint directly to bare metal or painting over a radically different colour beneath, use Helmi Primer to build up coverage and maximise adhesion. This robust water-based primer is available in a wide range of colours with a drying time of just two hours.

The full range of topcoat options is noted below:

Everal Aqua 10

Everal Aqua 40

Everal Aqua 80, depending on the sheen level required

Helmi 10

Helmi 30

Helmi 80, depending on sheen level required
