FAQs

How long does Bedec Barn Paint last?

Bedec gives no fixed number of years, as it depends on preparation, exposure and coats. Its flexible, microporous film resists cracking and flaking, so a refresh coat is usually all that is needed when the colour fades.

Is it waterproof?

It is weather resistant and protects against rain, but it is microporous so the surface can breathe. Do not use it where it will be in constant contact with water.

How much does the 2.5L tin cover?

The Bedec Barn Paint Semi Gloss Magnolia 2.5L covers about 32 to 38m² per coat on a smooth surface. Rough or porous surfaces use more.
