Benefits of Oil Based Exterior Eggshell paint
Hard-wearing Finish
Tom’s Oil Eggshell offers a traditional oil finish much loved by professional decorators. Its oil-based formulation makes it extremely practical and hard-wearing, offering a beautiful low sheen that is fully weather resistant.
Environmentally Friendly
The finish combines both traditional and cutting edge technology due to the replacement of mineral oils with sustainable alternatives. This ensures an eco-friendly product which is exceptionally long lasting.
Low Sheen Finish
The Little Greene ‘exterior family’ includes high-gloss paints for exterior woodwork and sumptuous matt finishes for brickwork and render. Tom’s Oil Eggshell sits somewhere in between, offering a washable surface and opaque colour, without an overt gloss.
