Zinsser AllCoat Exterior Matt (Water Based) is an ultimate performance all surface paint. Designed for the long term decoration of timber, metal, masonry, plastic, concrete, cladding and more, it forms a vapourpermeable, low maintenance water-shedding coating, re-coatable in 1 hour.
ALLCOAT® Exterior Matt contains a biocide to protect the dried coating against fungal degradation.
Designed for all exterior surfaces, ALLCOAT® Exterior Matt is ideal for new or previously painted wood, UPVC, galvanising, metals, cladding, weathered bitumen, stucco, brick, stone, cured concrete and more. ALLCOAT® Exterior Matt is self-priming and will bond to existing glossy paints without sanding. For most jobs, there is no need to purchase a separate primer. After removing existing mould and mildew, two coats of ALLCOAT® Exterior Matt will ensure that any exterior looks bright and beautiful for years.

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
- Remove all existing mould and mildew before painting. To effectively remove mould and mildew, dirt, and chalky paint residue, use a proper fungicidal wash or exterior house cleaner following the manufacturer’s instructions
- Timber at risk from decay or insect attack should be treated with an appropriate preservative
Two-Coat System
- ALLCOAT® Exterior Matt is self-priming and will adhere to most sound surface. It bonds to existing glossy paints without sanding
- The first coat of ALLCOAT® Exterior Matt 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 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
- Ensure conditions during application and cure are favourable, do not apply if there is a likelihood of rain, frost, fog, or condensation affecting the freshly applied paint before it has fully cured
Application Conditions
- Ensure air and surface temperature are between 10°C & 32°C and humidity is less than 85% during application and cure of the product
