What to think about
Oil length matters
Long-oil for brushability and exterior weatherability; medium-oil for harder dry; short-oil for stoving systems.
Pick the oil for the colour
Soya for whites (non-yellowing), linseed for build, DCO for clean colour.
100% solids and solvent choice
L-100 and D-100 let formulators set the final solid content and solvent system in their own plant.
From a long-oil base to a full architectural line.
A regional paint house moving from imported alkyds to Uniform's L-100 and D-100 line stabilised its white enamel programme on colour-retention specifications through seasonal variation.
