    Product Specification

    Finish:Gloss
    Volume Solids:40%
    Theoretical Coverage Rate:

    Up to 12m² per litre on non-porous surfaces. On porous surfaces coverage will be reduced e.g. sawn timber - 4-8m² per litre. Planed timber - 8-12m² per litre

    Normal application is 2 coats, however an additional coat should be applied to areas of high exposure such as sills and fascia boards

    Density:1.25 kg/litre
    Limitations:Not intended for application to exterior floors, decks or any surface subject to water immersion or prolonged contact with water

    Protect from frost



    Drying Times


    Curing Schedule At 20°C and 60% RH
    Touch dryDry to Recoathard dryFull cure
    1 Hour1 Hour4 Hours7 Days



    • Drying and recoat times will be extended at lower temperature and higher RH



    Surface Preparation


    • Surfaces should be clean, dry, sound, and free of any contamination that may interfere with adhesion
    • Remove all loose or peeling paint and chalky paint residue
    • Sand edges of any remaining paint film until smooth
    • Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960 paint surfaces as they may contain harmful lead. Avoid the inhalation of dust. Wear a suitable face mask if dry sanding
    • New concrete, masonry and other related surfaces must be cured at least 30 days before priming
    • To effectively remove mould and mildew, use Blackfriar Fungicidal Wash or Zinseer Mould Killer & Remover
    • Timber at risk from decay or insect attack should be treated with an appropriate preservative
    • Bare galvanised metal: apply direct to clean, bright metal, no primer required, ensure surface is clean, dry and free from any surface contamination
    • Bare Ferrous Metal: product contains a flash rust inhibitor so will not rust the bare metal on application, can be applied direct if the metal is completely rust free, if this is unlikely apply a dedicated anti-corrosive metal primer such as Rust-Oleum 3369/3380 CombiPrimer Anti-Corrosion prior to application of AllCoat Exterior Water Based
    • Composite Surfaces: Always ensure that the surface has been prepared sufficiently, Zinsser Universal Degreaser & Cleaner is ideal for this. As composite surfaces tend to have a wax like finish we would also advise lightly abrading the surface area. Two coats are required, the first coat acts as the primer and the second seals and protects the system

    Note: AllCoat Exterior Water Based is not anti-corrosive, it acts as a barrier to water reaching the surface and rusting the metal.



    Application Methods


    • Shake or stir well before using
    • Apply with synthetic bristle brush, roller, or sprayer
    • For airless spraying, use a .017” tip and high-medium (2000-2500 PSI) pressure
    • Avoid painting in direct sunlight and maintain a “wet edge” to avoid lapping



    Two-Coat System

    • ALLCOAT® Exterior Gloss is self-priming and will adhere to most sound surface. It bonds to existing glossy paints without sanding
    • The first coat of ALLCOAT® Exterior Gloss primes and seals the surface, providing a base for the topcoat. The topcoat completes the sealing process while providing additional moisture resistance and protection
    • Before painting, fill all nail holes and gouges
    • Where necessary, spot prime knots and sap streaks with Zinsser B-I-N® Primer-Sealer
    • For new or unpainted cedar, redwood, or other resinous timbers prime with Zinsser Cover Stain



    Application Conditions


    • Ensure air and surface temperature are between 10°C and 32°C and humidity is less than 85% during application and cure of the product





    Health and Safety


    Clean Up

    questions Colin Dolbear on 2023-07-26 14:03:51
    Question: 

    I need to paint my Composite front door which is Rosewood in colour with a grain finish. Will I loose the grain finish if I use this paint.

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Thanks for your enquiry.

    This product will follow the contours of the substrate being a thin build paint, so any texture should remain once painted.

    Due to the paint being one colour any highlights/lowlights of the grain effect would be lost.

    questions Andrew tucker on 2023-06-07 18:14:47
    Question: 

    Hi, does allcoat require an undercoat on pre painted and bare wood surfaces.

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    For application to bare timber we would recommend to prime first with Zinsser Cover Stain.

    Zinsser Allcoat Exterior can be applied to most previously painted areas directly assuming they are clean, dry, sound and sanded to provide a key prior to application.

    We would recommend to test on a small area prior to full application for compatibility and adhesion.

    questions Lisa on 2023-04-10 22:25:28
    Question: 

    can I paint polycarbonate ? I want to clad a plinth, so the paint wont be exposed to the elements, but will it stick ?

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    This product will adhere to many plastics such as polycarbonate, we would recommend the area to be painted is cleaned, degreased and lightly sanded prior to application.

    Testing on a small area prior to full application for compatibility and adhesion would be wise.

    questions Spike Mcnulty  on 2023-01-22 17:21:40
    Question: 

    Can this be used on kitchen unit doors as needs to be a gloss finish Thanks

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Assuming the kitchen cupboard doors are a laminate, they are clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we would recommend they are first primed with Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 prior to application.

    questions Lynn  on 2022-05-12 12:17:39
    Question: 

    I have seen that you have said that it is not suitable for floors . Would these include concrete patio slabs? Last October I used anthracite grey on a few concrete stepping stones and it looks far better than another branded masonry paint and now want to give my patio a revamp.

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Unfortunately this paint or other masonry paints should not be used on a floor.

    Assuming the concrete slabs have a damp proof membrane, the previously applied paint is removed, the area is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we can recommend Coo-Var Acrylic Floor Paint.

    This is available in many RAL, NCS or BS colours in a semi-gloss finish.

    questions Gary on 2021-11-28 05:44:43
    Question: 

    Would AllCoat exterior gloss be suitable for painting exterior garden pots, both plastic and glazed ceramic?

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Yes this product could be used assuming they are clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet.

    We would recommend priming first with Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3, also testing for compatibility and adhesion prior to full application.

    questions Alison on 2021-09-11 18:32:30
    Question: 

    I painted my narrowboat cabin sides in Owatrol oil gloss paint, but don't like the colour - would this be suitable for painting over it? And if so, would I have to sand first?

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    No, assuming the previously painted areas above the waterline are clean, dry, sound, prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet, a test for compatibility and adhesion is undertaken we can recommend Teamac Marine Gloss.

    The previously applied coating should be fully cured and sanded prior to application.

    Question: 

    I am looking to paint my fibreglass campervan roof, would this be the best product for that for a gloss finish?

    Question: 

    Hi, I have some steel garden chairs and an aluminium garden table. Can I use the same paint for all of these? Thank you!

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Both surfaces would either need to be previously painted or primed with Zinsser Bullseye 1-2-3 prior to application of Zinsser Allcoat Exterior.

    questions M Harrowven on 2021-03-21 16:56:25
    Question: 

    Is all coat exterior gloss (water based), in conjunction with zinsser cover stain, suitable to paint new tanalised sawn timber cladding or would a non tanalised timber cladding be preferable. Many thanks Mike

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Assuming the timber is bare, clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the Technical Data Sheet, Zinsser Cover Stain followed by Zinsser Allcoat Exterior would be suitable for application to tanalised or standard timber.

    Question: 

    Hello, I'm looking to paint my front door with the Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Gloss, can I purchase any paint samples first?

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Unfortunately the manufacturer does not provide samples of this product but if it colours you wish to choose if you provide us with a postal address we can send you a RAL colour chart to be able to see the RAL colours available at least in the product.

    questions John on 2019-04-18 10:03:15
    Question: 

    Would this be suitable to use on my wooden sash windows and their stone cill, or would the cill need a base coat of some kind.

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Gloss (Water Based) can be applied directly to a stone sill be it bare or previously painted. When applying on to timber, the surface should be primed with Zinsser Cover Stain initially before applying a minimum of 2 coats of Zinsser Allcoat Exterior Gloss (Water Based).

    questions John connor on 2018-10-11 17:09:56
    Question: 

    I want to decorate a hall,stairs and landing . The finish has to be white gloss i don't want to use oil as it goes yellow after a few months. Would this product be suitable as there are quite a few panel doors to paint. Is it easy to keep the edge going I've found other water-based glosses don t look good on large painted areas.

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Yes you can use Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Gloss (Water Based) for an interior application and it will give a non-yellowing finish. To paint doors we would recommend using a 4” short pile roller, it is much easier to keep a wet edge and will be quicker to cover a large area. You could also use one of the Zinsser primers to prime the door first if you wish, Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 or Zinsser B-I-N would both be suitable.

    questions Samantha Gorman on 2018-03-26 18:39:18
    Question: 

    Hi can i use the Black gloss all exterior paint on my composite door. If yes do i need to undercoat first?

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Gloss (Water Based) can be applied directly to uPVC with no primer required. We would advise abrading the surfaces with a fine grade of sandpaper followed by a solvent wipe using methylated spirits. Then apply 2 coats of the AllCoat Exterior Gloss (Water Based) in your chosen colour.

    questions Dave on 2016-03-14 13:27:32
    Question: What would I use to thin Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Gloss for spraying?
    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Zinsser do not recommend this product is thinned at all for application by Brush, Roller or Spray. They recommend application by Airless Spray only, as this will allow the product to be applied without thinning. The product is water based so for clean up, you can clean application tools, spatters and spills immediately with warm water and liquid detergent; rinse with water. Follow equipment manufacturer’s directions to clean spray equipment. Remove dried product with a household cleaner; rinse with water.

    questions Joy Durkin on 2015-05-24 12:00:54
    Question: 

    Regarding Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Gloss I failed to open the datasheet for some reason. When I clicked on the datasheet button, there appears to be two. One listed as MSDS and the other listed as TDS so are there two products available? What is the cleanup on this/these product/s? Is a primer/undercoat recommended?

    Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

    Every product has a Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Gloss is a water based product so clean up can be carried out with just water and for most surfaces no primer is required but for full details see information in the TDS.
