Hi All, I rang Alice Springs Paint Supplies this week and got
some info about outdoor concrete paint. They recommended a two-pack paint
(comes in two separate tins and is mixed before application) and these are
available as water or solvent based paints. They stock Dulux brand and
recommend: -
Durebuild – solvent based – less durable – cheaper
$165/4L, also available in 15L tin -
Luxepoxy ECO2 – water based therefore slightly easier
to use – more durable – more expensive $395/10L I’m not sure why they said the water based paint was more
expensive since it’s actually cheaper compared to the price for the 4L tin of
the solvent based type so it doesn’t seem like there’s a great difference.
They did indicate that price does vary depending on the colour that’s
chosen and that the darker colours can get chalkier quicker due to heat
absorption over time. Anyway, just thought I’d start the ball rolling on getting
the track painted. Other things we’ll have to think about are cleaning the
concrete prior to application, curing time required and making sure it doesn’t
rain soon after. Cheers Lisa This e-mail (including any attachments) is intended only for the recipient(s) named above.
