This 750ml tin is a practical size for multiple radiators and gives a durable, high gloss white finish that resists yellowing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne coat formula for full opacity in most applications, saving time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh gloss white finish with good colour retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrush application for full control around panels, valves and pipework\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood flow and levelling to minimise visible brush marks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat resistant formula suited to normal domestic radiator temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for steel and cast iron radiators, pipes and towel rails\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarger 750ml size, ideal for several radiators or a full room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurn the radiator off and allow it to cool completely before starting. Clean the surface to remove grease, dust and any wax or polish residue. If you are painting over an existing glossy finish, lightly key it with fine abrasive paper so the new paint has a surface to bond to, then wipe away the dust. Treat any rust with a suitable rust treatment and prime any bare metal before applying this topcoat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStir the paint well before use. Apply an even coat with a good quality brush, working in the direction of any panel ridges and avoiding overloading the brush to prevent drips and runs. This one coat formula is designed to give good opacity from a single application over most existing colours, though a heavily contrasting or very dark base colour may still benefit from a light second coat once the first has dried. Allow the radiator to cure fully, typically 24-48 hours, before switching the heating back on so the paint hardens properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRonseal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGloss\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. coverage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 12-14m² per litre, coverage varies by surface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTouch dry time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 2 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecoat time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTypically 16 hours if a second coat is needed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull cure \/ heat resistance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTypically heat resistant up to approx. 130°C once fully cured (allow 24-48 hours before switching heating on)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication method\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrush application, one coat formula\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteel and cast iron radiators, pipes and towel rails\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDoes one coat radiator paint really only need one coat?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes, this formula is designed to give full opacity from a single coat over an existing similar colour. Very dark or heavily stained surfaces may still benefit from a light second coat for the most even finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCan you paint a radiator with gloss?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, a dedicated radiator gloss like this Ronseal one coat paint is designed specifically to withstand the heat a radiator produces, unlike standard household gloss which can discolour or lose adhesion over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow do you paint a radiator?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurn the radiator off and let it cool fully, clean and lightly key the surface, treat any rust, then apply the paint evenly with a brush, checking coverage once dry before deciding whether a second coat is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow long does radiator paint take to dry?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis one coat formula is typically touch dry within around 2 hours. Allow around 24-48 hours for a full cure before turning the radiator back on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCan you use ordinary gloss paint on a radiator instead?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdinary household gloss is not formulated to withstand sustained radiator heat and can discolour, soften or lose adhesion over time. A dedicated radiator paint like this one is designed to cope with those conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCan you paint radiator pipes with this?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, this paint is also suitable for pipework, giving a neat, matching gloss finish when applied carefully with a brush.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ronseal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55610417512834,"sku":"367916","price":19.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/5024\/4482\/files\/398032_20250313120855_1024.jpg?v=1756492888","url":"https:\/\/essentialsfix.co.uk\/products\/ronseal-white-gloss-one-coat-radiator-paint-750ml","provider":"Essentials Fix","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
