Undercoat | Interior/Exterior

4.9/5.0
29 reviews (below)

A quality, natural wood undercoat is essential if you're planning on using lighter shades as your finishing coat. Our wood undercoat can also be used on pre-painted metals or even bare iron and steel if pre-treated with Lakeland Stainblock, making it an extremely useful product.

This undercoat paint for wood and metal is part of our unique, environmentally safe range of paints that are free from VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and solvents. Those who have decorated before will surely remember the headaches and nausea caused by paint fumes – but with Lakeland paints, there is no need to worry. Our wood undercoat is capable of drying in less than two hours and is completely safe for use in children's bedrooms & nurseries with a coverage area of up to 60m2 per 5 litre/per coat.

    We have had our whole house repainted in Lakeland paints of various kinds and our painter has found them excellent. The coverage is good and they seem to be hard-wearing. The mess has been kept to an absolute minimum because they have all been so easy to wash out of brushes etc. The paint itself gives a lovely soft effect and nthe colours are beautiful. I have found that the samples often look darker than the final paint but that may be due to my own inexperience and nervousness about strong colours. For anyone who feels the same I would say be bold, the larger expanse looks lighter than the sample against a pale wall. We used imperfect whilte on our ceilings in some rooms and it looks very elegant. Pink and Blue tints are beautiful pure colours and Sorrento is joyful. Mocha is lovely too, a gentle milk chocolate. The company has been excellent, quick delivery and helpful on the phone.

    i bought undercoat and wood primer as well as matt wall paint. Some of it i did myself and some i asked a handy man to help me. From my point of view there was little smell from any of it and although i usually become unwell with paint found these all to be no problem at all. I m also delighted with the colours i bought, i would recommend that you purchase the hand painted colour chart as these are the actual paints not printed. I then bought test pots of the colours i wanted to try. This method has served me well and i'm very happy. I shall be buying from Lakeland Paints again.

    Perfect smell free start to sparkling white doors and skirtings as ever. Only needed a litre as decorator was able to use up part cans from last year with no problem. This makes it economical. Cans were stored cool and dark but frost free just given a good stir on reopening.

    Fabulous products. I’ve used the undercoat and satin finish for wood and the matt emulsion. It’s like painting with velvet, it’s so smooth to apply and leaves a lovely finish. Would highly recommend!
