I have a 40 ft plastic shipping container, it was a refrigerated container, it is now my studio, it’s white, I converted it 8 years ago and it has white pvc door and windows. I would like to paint it all green to blend in with the landscape. I’m looking for advice on a suitable colour and type of paint. Do I need to prime it, it’s a large area so if I only had to paint one coat it would be better, Róisín
Unfortunately we do not have a one coat option for this application, assuming the pvc to be painted is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we can recommend Zinsser AllCoat Exterior (Water Based) for all areas other than where water can pool such as a roof.
This is available in many RAL, NCS or BS colours in a matt, satin or gloss finish.
