For such a great paint, it’s disappointing that it doesn’t come in any colours other than the standard pure brilliant white. But the elegant, soft mid-sheen and almost velvety-looking finish make it perfect for any home. It’s oil-based, so brushes will need to be cleaned with brush cleaner, and as with all oil-based paints, you should also make sure you keep the area well ventilated while painting and drying. After it’s fully dry, any future scuff marks or stains can be cleaned off without damaging the paint, making it perfect for high-traffic areas. Whether you’re breathing new life into upcycled and renovated wooden furniture or giving rusty metal work a new long-lasting weather protected finish, our durable paint can aid the transformation.Leyland Fast Dry satin is a fully water-based paint, meaning it will never discolour over time. This is an issue with all modern oil-based paints, which is why water-based is becoming increasingly popular. This satinwood paint from Leyland is an excellent all-rounder. Suitable for almost all projects, it’s easy to use, long-lasting and durable. While it will need two coats to get the fullest coverage, a little goes a very long way, and as you don’t need to use primer, it’s great for those on a budget. Leyland Fast Drying Satin will not adhere directly to old oil-based gloss or similar coatings, so you should use an adhesion primer if you intend to coat problem surfaces. Leyland recommend the use of its own “fast drying undercoat”, which is a fitting name really. It can be applied with either a paint brush or a foam roller, and getting a smooth surface with no streaks or drips is easy, even for beginners. Although it should always be applied in a well-ventilated area, it has a much weaker odour than other oil-based satinwood paints. Painting wood or metal can be simple, especially when you pair the best materials with the correct preparation. Discover our range of high quality wood paint and metal paint to give your interior or exterior surfaces the excellent finish it deserves.

It’s hard-wearing, easy to clean and usually very straightforward to use. While it’s most commonly found in only one or two shades of white, some brands offer a wider range of colours, giving you the option to truly personalise your space.One particular success story is when I used this Leyland Satin paint on an indoor pool area. It took a few coats, but it was perfect for the job. The finish was a soft satin that was pleasant to the eye and, as far as I’m aware, is still looking good a year on. Final Thoughts Aqua Guard is probably the brand leader amongst trade professionals, and it’s a product I can vouch for.

Perhaps the best feature of the Aqua Satin range, though, is the incredibly wide variety of colours. While there’s an impressive range of neutrals and pastels, you can also find this satinwood paint in everything from rich, dark reds to bold, bright blues, making it perfect for those looking to create a unique and vibrant space. Leyland and Johnstone’s paints are both manufactured by PPG, Leyland being the budget brand, and Johnstone’s being the premium. The alternative to Leyland Fast Drying Satin is a product called Johnstone’s Aqua guard.

It isn’t very easy to apply either and takes a little bit of getting used to. You can get a good finish with Leyland Fast Drying Satin if you use a soft brush and keep it wet. I dip mine in water every half hour to keep the paint from drying on the ferrule. Otherwise, it dries very fast and clogs, then becomes a nightmare! You can’t roll it either, even though the instructions say you can. Don’t even bother trying!

In terms of durability, the paint’s robustness post-curing was commendable, making it a decent option for exterior fascias, especially when used in conjunction with a fast-drying undercoat like Caparol.
