Choosing between oil based gloss and acrylic gloss
Oil-Based Gloss vs Acrylic Gloss – What’s Best for Your Gold Coast Home?
When choosing the right gloss paint for your doors and trims, it’s important to think about how the space will be used. Is the property a rental investment, a forever home, or are you preparing it for sale? Do you have kids or pets, or need a finish that’s easy to clean and low maintenance?
As experienced Painters on the Gold Coast, we help homeowners and investors choose the right gloss paint to suit their lifestyle, budget, and long term goals.
Oil-Based Gloss Paint – Durable & Long-Lasting
Oil-based gloss paint offers a durable, hard wearing finish with higher shine levels, making it ideal for high-traffic areas such as doors, skirting boards, and trims. It is more resistant to marking, easier to clean, and delivers long lasting protection.
This makes oil based gloss a popular choice for rental properties and investment homes on the Gold Coast, where durability and reduced maintenance are key. It’s especially well suited to trims and doors that need to stand the test of time.
Acrylic Gloss Paint – Fast Drying & Low Odor
In contrast, acrylic gloss paint is perfect for a faster drying, low odor, and environmentally friendly finish. With a quicker turnaround time, acrylic gloss is ideal for new home builds, renovations, and DIY projects where speed and convenience matter.
Acrylic gloss is a great option for new builds, homeowners who want a quality finish without long drying times, making it a popular choice for busy households across the Gold Coast.
