Radiator Paint

Radiator paint is a type of paint that is specifically designed to withstand high temperatures and help the heat radiate from the radiator. It can be used on any kind of radiator, including cast iron ones. Radiator paint can have different finishes, such as matt, eggshell, satin or gloss, and can be either oil-based or water-based. The finish you choose will depend on your personal preference and the look you want to achieve.

When choosing a radiator paint, it is important to consider the quality of the paint and its durability. A good quality radiator paint should be able to withstand high temperatures without discolouration and should be heat resistant up to 130°C. It should also be tough and durable, with a long-lasting finish.

The cost of radiator paint can vary depending on the brand and quality of the paint. For a 2.5L tin of paint, which should be enough to paint a large radiator, it can vary from £20 to £50 for a good quality paint.

Please note that painting a hot radiator can affect the quality of the paint finish. Therefore, it is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully and allow the radiator to cool down before painting.
