Discover new self-priming, multi-surface paints
Four of our best-selling Intelligent Paint finishes are now underpinned by pioneering new Intelligent Grip™ technology, which innovatively combines primer and topcoat in a single tin of paint. Intelligent Grip™ improves the versatility, durability and efficiency of our Intelligent Matt, Eggshell, Satin and Gloss finishes, allowing you to paint almost any surface in the home, with no need for a separate primer.
Choose freely from a range of sheen levels – from completely flat to high gloss – and bring transformative colour to your walls, ceilings, woodwork, metal radiators, uPVC windows, and even tiles, glass and melamine cabinetry. Just clean and lightly sand the surface before applying your chosen finish, with the peace of mind that our paint will grip securely and deliver a beautiful, professional finish that stands the test of time.
Our newly upgraded Intelligent Matt, Eggshell, Satin and Gloss finishes are available in the complete Little Greene colour palette, so there are no limits on bringing fabulous colour to all corners of your home. You could create a striking colour-drenched kitchen that incorporates the walls, tiles and cabinetry, or creatively combine colours and finishes to bring durability and interest to a functional hallway, boot room or utility.
