RANGE REVIEW: DECORATING
CROWN TRADE’s new high performance all- purpose PX primer range has been specifically developed to achieve excellent opacity and adhesion on even tricky surfaces such as tiles and ceramics, as well as helping to block stains and offer protection from alkaline attack. The new range offers a choice between the traditional solvent-based stain-blocking PX3 primer and the new water-based PX4, which also features the added advantage of a quick-drying and low-odour finish. Both the new PX3 and PX4 primers can be used on a wide range of internal and external substrates and provide a quick and easy solution to preparing even the most difficult surfaces for painting. Offering excellent wet and dry adhesion, the new primers are the perfect partner for use in tiled bathroom and kitchen areas as they provide a hardwearing coating that won’t peel or blister when exposed to water. Also ideally suited for use on newly plastered walls and masonry, both products can seal porous surfaces and help prevent damage caused by a high alkaline content.
New in the NOËL & MARQUET range: the WALLSTYL IL10 and IL11 light baseboards - two products with numerous potential applications each. Convincing as skirting boards thanks to their puristic design, they are also ideal for creative applications with LED light. They can moreover be used as highlight on walls and ceilings or door borders.
Whether for your own four walls or in a public interior, the impact-resistant light baseboards from the WALLSTYL collection will create a special atmosphere in no time! n 01969 623410 n
