ColourPicker Explained

In general we sort colours for products into 2 main groups - ‘Ready Mixed’ and ‘Tinted’.
Tinted colours will always be more expensive than Ready Mixed colours as they need to be produced at the time of order using a tinting machine dispensing colourant into a base*.
During busy periods, this means that tinted colours could take longer, for example – a ready mixed colour ordered on a 3-5 day delivery might arrive within 3 days, however a tinted colour might take the full 5 days to arrive.

To find Ready Mixed colours, search "ready mixed" or select the Ready Mixed 'colour chart'. To see Tinted colours select a colour chart such as RAL, BS, NCS, etc. or search for a colour/hue to see available or related options.

To ensure fair pricing, we split colours into ‘Price Bands’ to group together similar priced colours. If you wish to search for the cheapest tinted colours, always select Price Band 1.

We make every effort to list all available colours, however we also offer a colour match service which can be accessed by contacting our Technical Team on 0113 245 5450 (option 2) or emailing [email protected]

*Colours are sold in the nearest tin size but actual paint volume per tin may vary up to 10% depending on colour

Surface Preparation

Bare Concrete - Watco Etch & Clean also etches smooth, bare concrete surfaces to provide a key. Flush with clean water and allow the surface to dry. For the removal of heavier deposits of oil and grease we recomend Watco Concroff, again, flush with clean water and allow the surface to dry.

New Concrete - As a guide, new concrete should be left for 8 weeks to dry. The surface should then be prepared using Watco Etch & Clean, thoroughly rinsed and left to dry.

Priming - Not usually required, but for very porous high suction surfaces, such as sand and cement screed, use Watco 4 hour Epoxy Primer. Concrete should be sufficiently porous to allow the paint to penetrate, so very smooth or power floated concrete is unsuitable unless first primed with Watco Powerfloat Primer.

Painted Surfaces - Abrade to remove any weak or loose paint. Check remaining paint is well bonded. Very smooth, glossy paint should be lightly abraded to provide a key. Watco Bio-D can be used to remove grease and oil from painted surfaces. Watco Concroff is a very powerful degreaser for contaminated bare concrete, (do not use on previously painted surfaces as it can soften paint). A trial area is advisable to test compatibility with previous coatings.

Asphalt - New asphalt must be sound and at least 3 months old. If any residual oils remain, the surface should be washed using Watco Concroff. Painted asphalt should be cleaned with Watco Bio-D (Concroff can soften paint) and a trial area is advisable to test compatibilty with previous coatings.

Metal - Remove any rust and flaking material by disc grinding or wire brushing. Apply the coating immediately after the clean metal surface. Grease or oil can be removed using Watco Bio-D. Allow the metal to dry before coating.

Galvanised Metal - Watco Galvaprime must be used to prepare galvanised metal.

Mixing & Application

Individually stir the resin and curing agent using a Watco Paint Mixer (or a wooden battem at least 25mm wide is ideal)
Pour the mixed components into the larger outer tin and stir thoroughly until uniform in colour
Pour the mixed resin and curing agent into a shallow roller tray
Apply the mixed resin and curing agent by medium pile roller (not foam) to a measured area of 5m2. A paint brush may be used for cutting in around the edges
Using the perforated anti-slip aggregate tin, immediately sprinkle the aggregate, uniformly, onto the wet coat to obtain the desired surface finish (total or light coverage)
Using the same roller that was used to apply the mixed resin and curing agent, roll over the sprinkled aggregate to bed in. Do not recharge the roller with mixed resin and curing agent unless very heavy quantities of grit have been applied, since this will result in a loss of slip resistance
Avoid washing surface for 7 days after application
Remove dirt with a medium stiff broom or light scrubbing machine using detergents if necessary - Watco Bio-D is ideal
