Everything you need to know about PlastiKote PURE 

Published on:

PlastiKote PURE is a water-based, highly pigmented, eco-friendly spray paint. Like all of our paints, it’s designed to provide a superior, durable and long-lasting finish that is easy to apply and resists fading, cracking, and chipping over time.

However, PlastiKote PURE contains over 90% less solvents, and it’s completely odourless - making it safe to use both indoors and outdoors. PURE spray paint can be used on virtually any surface, making it the perfect choice for any painting project.

PlastiKote PURE is the first of its kind to be made from sustainable and recycled materials. The PURE range comes in a can that’s manufactured with 70% less CO2 impact compared to a standard can, and a 100% recycled plastic cap. 

What colours does PlastiKote PURE come in?  

We have created a range of traditional, historical and contemporary colours to give your project its own personality.  

PlastiKote PURE comes in a wide range of colour palettes, for both the all-surface matt (10% sheen) and gloss (75% sheen) formulas.

What is water-based spray paint?  

Water-based paint is a spray paint that’s made with a water-based solution, instead of using a solvent or oil base. Because it doesn’t use the same solvents as traditional spray paint, it’s safer to use and better for the environment.  

You can use water-based spray paint in the same way you’d use any normal spray paint.  

What are the benefits of water-based spray paints like PlastiKote PURE?  

There are plenty of benefits to water-based spray paint as opposed to traditional solvent-based spray paints. Here are just a few of the reasons we love PlastiKote PURE for DIY projects, art, and more.  

Better for using indoors 

Water-based spray paints are better for indoor use than traditional solvent spray paints. With a solvent-based spray paint, you may need to use safety precautions like a respirator mask and other safety equipment, while water-based spray paint can be used inside with no odour. However, it’s still important to open a window for ventilation when spray painting, and cover the surrounding area to protect from paint mist.  

Less toxic than solvents 

Solvent spray paints give a bright and bold finish, but the solvents used to make them can give off dangerous fumes, so artists and DIYers need to be careful when using them. Water-based spray paints are largely non-toxic, and PlastiKote PURE contains over 96% less solvents to make it safer to use.  

Suitable for children 

Because water-based paints like PlastiKote are water-based instead of solvent-based, they’re safe for children to use (with constant adult supervision, of course!). The reduced risk of toxic ingredients also means that PlastiKote PURE can be used to paint toys and furniture that kids will use without being worried about them ingesting dangerous chemicals.
