What is the best method of application for Little Greene paint?

Little Greene colours and finishes can be applied through a variety of different methods to help achieve the best possible results. The most popular methods of application include:

Brush - For the highest quality results, use a high quality synthetic bristle brush that is suitably sized for your painting project. Apply evenly, ensuring you don't overload your brush with paint.

Roller - To ensure a smooth, even application use a short nap wool blend roller sleeve on smooth surfaces, increasing nap length for textured surfaces as to ensure even and thorough coverage. For high quality results, ensure your strokes are all applied in the same direction, to maintain a wet edge throughout.

Sprayer - Suitable for the majority of finishes, to ensure you are using the correct spray sizes ensure you read the application guide provided on your tin.

How many coats of Little Greene paint should I apply?

This will totally depend on the type of surface you are applying your Little Greene paint to. Known for providing excellent levels of coverage, in must cases two coats should be perfect.

Which Little Greene finish should I use for busier areas in my home such as hallways & playrooms?

When it comes to higher traffic areas within your home, we recommend using the Little Greene Intelligent Matt which is completely washable and has been designed to deliver a higher level of durability.

Which Little Greene finish should i use for wooden surfaces?

When it comes to painting wooden surfaces such as skirting boards, doors and kitchen cupboards, our top choices include Intelligent Satinwood, a quick drying satin paint delivering a hard wearing finish. If your searching for a paint with a lower sheen, we suggest also trying out Little Greene's Intelligent Eggshell.

What Little Greene finish do you recommend for exterior surfaces?

For exterior surfaces our top choice has got to be the Little Greene Intelligent Exterior Eggshell. Available in the majority of all Little Greene colours, this exterior paint finish is a great choice for your outdoor wooden surfaces, such as garden furniture, doors and window frames. Did we also mention that you don't need to apply a primer on new timber or previously painted wood.

Little Greene Undercoat

To achieve the best possible finish, we recommend using the Little Greene Intelligent ASP which is suitable for both interior and exterior surfaces. Ensuring that your surfaces receive the full depth of colour, undercoats work through sealing unpainted surfaces and preparing them for painting.

Please be aware that the Intelligent ASP will be lighter than your chosen topcoat.
