Types Of Paint In Gauteng
Paint has become a science in itself and there are many varieties of paint available in Gauteng stores used for various things. Artistic paint includes watercolours and oil paints which is used by artists –something the culturally rich South Africa has been of – when they paint on canvas and create their very own masterpieces.
Similarly, paint in Gauteng used on buildings and furniture can either be oil-based or water-based. This type of paint is used to protect and decorate old furniture. It is also used to cover the walls of buildings. Paint used in these applications are available in large containers, where as artistic paint is supplied in small tubes and is very expensive.
The many types of paint, however, all have one thing in common: they are all made up of pigments of colour that are dissolved in a solution. Ink used in printers for instance, is merely paint thrown strategically on paper.
Paint in Gauteng used in house painting includes primer, undercoat, solvent and emulsion paints. Emulsion paints are water based and are less expensive and less durable than other oil based paint, but they have a few benefits. Firstly, they do not give off solvent odours, which are dangerous to your health. Secondly, it is much easier to clean your painting equipment, because it can be done with soap and water in the place of turpentine. Thirdly it has a shorter drying time than oil based paints, which is definitely handy when you are in a rush to move in.
