Washable Wall Paint for High-Traffic Areas: Here's What You Need to Know

With dirt-repellent and washable wall paint, you get durable walls that are super easy to wipe and clean, making them impervious to stains. This wipe-resistant paint is perfect for your interior walls. Washable paint is especially practical for kitchens, significantly extending the lifespan of your painted surfaces. The Functional Wall Paint! has excellent coverage, is scrub-resistant, hard-wearing, and looks beautiful too.

What Makes Washable Paint Special?

When you paint your walls with washable wall paint, they can be effortlessly wiped clean with a damp cloth. Its smooth, abrasion-resistant, and robust finish makes it particularly easy to clean. There's no limit to how often you can wipe it.
While this hard-wearing wall paint shares properties with latex paints, it's notably more matte and easy to repaint, unlike traditional latex. With dirt-repellent paint, wall stains become a thing of the past.

Which Walls Can I Paint or Varnish with Robust Paint?

Hard-wearing wall paints are especially recommended for walls in rooms where they are exposed.
This includes:

Washable wall paints are not paints; they are breathable wall paints. Their smooth surface means steam and toothpaste marks can be wiped away effortlessly. You can also use them in the kitchen or children's rooms, where the occasional stain is inevitable.

If you have tiles in your bathroom and shower that you want to refresh, paint them with our durable tile paints. They can be wiped with a damp cloth and easily withstand normal moisture.

Our robust and washable wall paints have another special feature: if you ever decide you don't like the colour, you can simply paint over them. So why not dare to try a bold shade, perhaps in green, blue, or pink, instead of classic neutral beige?

Of course, you can also refresh already painted walls with our paints. It doesn't matter whether the substrate was painted with emulsion paint or another wall paint.

When is Dirt-Repellent Paint Most Effective?

Washable and dirt-repellent wall paint is especially suitable for interior walls that are prone to dirt and grime. This could be the dining room or even the wall directly behind the kitchen bin. Wipe-resistant paints are particularly useful and practical in the kitchen.

However, if your dog enjoys rubbing against the hallway wall after an autumn walk, leaving wet soil and water on it, you should simply paint with our wipe-resistant paints. The Functional Wall Paint! is a wall paint that is also especially suitable for commercial interiors. The staircase in your block of flats, the clubroom, or your practice's waiting room can all be transformed with this abrasion-resistant wall paint, available in our complete colour samples.

You can easily clean dirt and stains from the painted walls. It doesn't matter whether your walls are plastered or wallpapered. You can paint directly over them with our paint for plastered walls or with our paint for wallpaper and woodchip.

Choosing the Right Paint for High-Traffic Walls

Even if you know you want to paint your walls with a hard-wearing interior paint, the question remains: Which paint is suitable for the job? Different rooms experience varying levels of wear and tear and require different degrees of durability.

Painting with Washable Paint: Application Tips

Our hard-wearing wall paints are just as easy to apply as all our other wall paints. The key is to have a sound substrate that isn't too absorbent. Because our wall paints offer excellent coverage, you don't need to overcoat old, strong colours with white paint first. Use a roller for small surfaces to quickly paint smaller areas. For larger walls, the paint roller is also suitable.

And should you ever decide you don't like your chosen colour, you can simply paint over the abrasion-resistant wall paint again.
