PAINTING & DECORATING
PAINTING NEW TRENDS FOR DECORATING PRODUCTS
It may be Summer now, but decorating product stockists need to be looking ahead to the sales opportunties afforded by Autumn season.
Supporting the multi-trade
With the growing shortage of painters in the UK, other trades are picking up more decorating jobs than ever before. For these people, convenient access to the right decorating tools and accessories has become critical.
The Axus Decor range encompasses the entire decorating range from protection to clean-up, with innovative products in every category. Examples include S-Tex workwear, which is just as stylish as practical, Arystox ceramic abrasives, and Silk Touch brushes, engineered to deliver a smooth finish, even if painting is not your primary skill. Axus Decor also exclusively distribute OLFA products in the UK and Ireland. These Japanese-made knives and scrapers are incredibly reliable, and OLFA blades deliver unparalleled performance. One of OLFA's top products, suitable for all tradespeople, is the "X Design" Extra-Heavy-Duty Scraper. Strike its hammerable end to see it destroy tiles and other challenging materials, or equip it with a long, flexible "BSF" blade to lift off wallpaper and paint quickly, all the while minimising damage to the substrate underneath.

HMG sits on the fence for paint styles HMG Paints has expanded its range of Fence and Shed Paint colours for Summer 2021.
The newly launched colours can be viewed online at
shop.hmgpaint.com with swatches available to view in many HMG distribution outlets. Whether you like traditional timber colours, statement colours or light pastels, this colour selection covers a myriad of popular shades. The Fence and Shed Paint offers a premium quality water-based, protective finish for use on rough sawn wood and can be used on fences, sheds, other garden areas and furniture.
Rustins Advanced Wood Preserver – now available in Grey Rustins is launching a new Grey colour to their successful Advanced Wood Preserver range, which is already available in Clear, Medium Brown, Dark Brown and Green. Vince McDonagh – Marketing and Design Manager at Rustins said ‘We asked our consumers what they would like to see next from Rustins and the overwhelming response was for a grey colour in our popular wood finishing range.’ McDonagh added ‘consumers love our wood preserver as they don’t have to wait for the paint to dry before applying the second coat. Rustins Advanced Wood Preserver is water based and therefore low odour and non- flammable. It works on nanotechnology that gives deep penetration into the wood, allowing you to re-coat whilst the wood is damp. Its performance is much greater than standard wood preservation products and gives long lasting protection against dry rot, wet rot, fungi, wood boring insects and their larvae.

Reviewing the product,
K.Jones a professional Painter and Decorator commented “I was recommended to use this by a painter and it was lovely paint. Went on so nicely and really, happy with the colour. Service was excellent, the online chat function means you can get great help pretty quickly and delivery was fast too. Would 100% use again.” HMG’s new innovative water-based MSH colourants have been used across the range and provide excellent colour retention and weather fastness to ensure the colour stays brighter for longer, as well as superior coverage meaning users get more value for their money. “After a successful reception of the Fence and Shed Paint in 2020, we are delighted to be launching new shades for Summer 2021.” Commented Danny Cleary, Sales Director, HMG Paints Ltd. “Over the past year we have seen a plethora of customers convert to HMG Paints’ Fence and Shed Paint after being tired of doing numerous coats with competitor products. Sales for HMG’s fence paints are on the upturn once again in the warmer weather and we are excited to be stocking the range including the new colours.” Commented Brian Green, Director of Topdec Decorating Supplies. The Fence and Shed Paint can be applied by brush, roller, or spray application.
