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

Recommended Primers

A range of primers have been fire tested and approved for use under FIRETEX FX5090. Please consult Rawlins Paints for detailed information. Must not be applied directly to galvanized steel and zinc rich primers.

Recommended Topcoats

If it can be guaranteed that application and subsequent in-service conditions will be in a C1 environment as defined in ISO 12944-2:1998, then no topcoat is required.

For any other situation a topcoat must be applied, consult our Technical Team for advice.

The above products should be used for subsequent re-decoration.

Additional Notes

In common with other water based coatings, the drying of this material is retarded by high humidity conditions. Lack of air movement also slows down the drying process, and under such conditions it is advisable to introduce some method of circulating air over the coated surface in order to speed up the drying. A ventilated air speed of 2 metres per second is recommended.

Numerical values quoted for physical data may vary slightly from batch to batch.

david cooke on 2024-01-15 11:37:48	Question: Can any of your intumescent paint systems be used to provide 60 minutes fire resistance to 232/18 galvanized cold rolled steel roof purlins?
	Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Unfortunately no, we do not have an intumescent paint suitable for application to cold rolled steel.

Terry on 2022-09-07 13:22:15	Question: Hi Just wondering how much m2 would the 20litres cover? Would need to cover 478 steel plates at 400x400mm per plate. Have done a calculation of roughly 7.5m2 per 20liters , would this be correct? Can't seem to find the m2 coverage in information sheets. You're help is greatly appreciated. Regards, Terry
	Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Thank you for the enquiry, unfortunately this product does not have fixed coverage rates and a specification will be required. Please send the information below to [email protected] - Level of fire protection required (i.e. 30, 60, 90min, etc.) - Each steel section dimension (i.e. 254x146x37 UB) - Quantity and length of each section (or overall meterage for each section) - Orientation (horizontal or vertical) - Number of sides to be painted (all sides, 3 sides, 1 flange, etc.) - Structural Steel Design Code (i.e. EuroCode, BS5950, BS476; Part 21, etc.) - Building type (i.e. office, domestic, storage, etc.) - Environment (internal, external, car park, chemical exposure, etc.) - Application on site or in shop Alternatively you can just forward us drawings, fabrication/cutting lists and we'll extract the information from them but in that instance we'd need some guidance as to what to allow for i.e. all steels on first floor, etc.
