Hamilton
Expression
Expression is the latest brand from Hamilton and is the result of extensive research and development both in the UK and Sweden. This also includes the company’s Decorator’s Panel which is made up of a team of experienced UK-based professional painters and decorators.

The new brush brand features MaxStroke, a synthetic filament blend which is said to acheive optimal paint pick up and release. Expression produces a smooth and consistent finish, accommodating developments in paint formulations, both solvent and water-based. The Expression range comprises; Expression Flat brush in sizes 1, 1 ½, 2 and 3”; Expression Angled brush in sizes 35 and 70mm; and Expression Precision brush in sizes 15 and 20mm.

Tesa
Precision
In response to the rise in popularity for Geometric painting, tesa has launched the Precision range of masking tapes to enable decorators to achieve this look. The company’s Precision Mask consists of an extra-thin and strong Japanese rice paper (Washi) backing and can be used to support geometric painting indoors or outdoors on a range of surfaces including glass, aluminium, PVC and wood.

The combination of a highly equipped backing material and special adhesive formulation is said to allow easy removability, coupled with a translucent backing which allows for easy positioning. It is also said to be easy to tear by hand without leaving any unsightly residues.

Leyland Trade
Acrylic Eggshell
Joining its range of Hardwearing products, Leyland Trade has added Acrylic Eggshell, a paint designed to deliver a durable, mid-sheen finish on interior surfaces. The paint is formulated with tough acrylic resin, making it stain and moisture resistant, while also offering a washable and easy-to-clean finish once dry.

Designed specifically to offer durability, the paint has also been rigorously tested — for example, when scrubbed 200 times over a period of approximately five minutes, only three microns of paint were removed. The paint is suitable for use on walls and ceilings, as well as primed wood and metal and can be tinted to more than 16,000 colours.
