Can any one please post pics of any wood work with Deco paint. I need to know, how the finishing looks like... I have a wood work done with Ply and covered with MDF. Please let me know of best options including colours.

Hi sneha,

i suggest you choose depending upon the colors you've already used in the room, try not to have too many colors.

I'm not against colorful homes. There's bright, and then there's too bright. I wouldn't go with persimmon for the whole house. The photo you provided has lots of white trim which offsets the orange, but your house doesn't have that much trim (unless you were planning on adding some, which I think would look good no matter what color you ultimately choose, but even so, I wouldn't go with persimmon for the whole house, as it's still too bright). To repeat what @nwduck said, the other homes in the neighborhood don't appear to all be done in the bright colors, and so yours would stand out too too much. I like @deco's idea of the bright door, if you really love a bright color. For the rest of the house, any more subdued color would be fine, along with additional trim around the windows, and assuming that your siding color coordinates with your roofing color.

Hello Sneha.

It's a duco paint and not deco paint. It's a very commonly used application over MDF. Your designer will show you different colors available. You can visit any home deco shopping and have a look at their duco finish furniture.

In a layman's language we call it that automobile paint finish. It's close to that but not as good.

We recommend a waterproof MDF as it has to undergo a lot of wet sanding. Please confirm that with your designer.

Thanks,
Amit

Yes... we have used waterproof MDF over ply wood.... hence looking for duco paint.... Our designer didn't complete the work and is traveling abroad, so not reachable even over the phone. Attaching more pics.

Good morning Sneha.

What else are you looking for ? Color combinations ?

It is difficult to suggest the color combination without understanding clients taste, property location size etc. More so because DUCO is an expensive application .

Where are you based ? Probably a designer from the city can do a visit and suggest the colors after that.

Thanks

Duco paint can easily get small scratches so it’s better to use PU polish for high traffic areas,
White and grey combination will look good

Hi Varun, it doesn't looks like it painting was done on a smooth surface. Anyways color can obviously be changed to white as you want. It may involve additional cost of rework.

Thanks,

Sheetal, Duco is a softer finish and is not recommended for high traffic areas.

It can be repainted or fixed otherwise but would need to see the pics to understand the extent of scratch es

Hi Nitin,

I saw lot of people using 6mm mdf on plywood for Duco as u mentioned. instead cant we use HD HMR directly. they have a smooth finish too

Rithvik,

Yes, people do use duco paint on HDHMR surface directly and it is indeed a good smooth surface for Duco.

Having said that, a disclaimer is that we don't use HDHMR on our projects due to reservations on its longevity.

Thanks,

I would suggest go for laminates it is an better option and it will keep its look and finish for more time than paint.

and it will also give a rich look to it
