About this deal

Available in 7 luxury STILEY colour finishes to make a feature out of the functional ensuring consistency for interior furniture.

Typically, for a project such as painting stairs, I wouldn’t recommend budget options. With that being said, WRX Trade’s Satinwood is about as good as you can get without having to stretch your purse strings too much.The paint flows so well that there’s no danger of an orange peel effect or brush marks being present once it cures. Furthermore, it’s very forgiving when touching up with minimal, if any, flashing. When it comes to application, it’s got a very impressive 14m2/L of coverage and very good opacity considering that it’s a water-based paint and has a thin consistency. 2 coats will likely do the job. Great for slip resistance, fast drying and holds up well to general wear and tear over the course of a few years. Of course, that’s not to say it won’t be highly durable because it will be – it just won’t last as long as the top 2 paints on this list. As it is touch dry within 30 minutes and re-coatable after 1 hour, it’s a convenient choice for many homeowners as you should be able to use the stairs on the same day that you paint them without having to worry about the paint lifting away from the surface. With that being said, I would advise giving it at least 16 hours before using the stairs just in case.

Whilst it may be tempting to go for a pop of colour when painting your stairs, it’s important to bear in mind your overall interior decor colour scheme before choosing a colour for your stairs. Our easy to install, elegant and stylish handrail kits enable you to create your dream design aesthetic without hassle or expense. This low-odour paint is suitable for use on exterior concrete so you can imagine how durable it is for interior stairs! Overall, my number one recommendation. There are a few other paints on this list that could ALMOST cope with the same amount of rigorous scratching but for me, Bedec MSP is simply the most durable. Furthermore, unlike WRX Trade Satinwood, which doesn’t need an undercoat, I always find that I get my best results with Aqua Guard when used in conjunction with the Aqua undercoat. Of course, purchasing the undercoat paint is only going to increase the cost of the job which is why I’ve put this paint in the medium budget range.Once fully cured, its paint film is flexible enough to deal with the natural movements of wooden stairs but where it really excels is its incredible resistance to scuffs and scratches which is perhaps the most common problem of less durable stair paints. A before and after of a staircase I painted using Bedec MSP. The difference is remarkable. I should mention that it is just a standard satinwood paint so it’s not going to win awards for its bomb-proof durability any time soon but it does dry to a solid finish that can withstand scratches and scuffs. A modern take on a design classic. Our brass takes on a satin finish rather than a traditional shine. It’s that rare cover version that we think is actually better than the original. Works with sleek modern and quaint classic interiors to create luxury accents and elevate the ordinary. Perhaps one of my favourite paints to apply, I’ve included Scuff-X in this list due to the fact that you’re almost guaranteed to get a professional-looking finish after application. It’s got teeth, grips incredibly well and is resistant to scuffs and scratches. A great choice if you can afford it!

Warm, rich and inviting. Antique Copper is the go-to for those of you with an eye for the nostalgic. It’s grown up, but never stuffy. The type of colour that says “I know how to make an Old Fashioned” (don’t worry we won’t tell anyone if you don’t). The perfect partner for dark green and classic navy interior colour schemes. Stairs are one of the highest-traffic areas of any home therefore durability is perhaps the most important thing you should be looking at when buying stair paint. Stair railings must have a 'Power Grip,' where the fingers wrap around the circumference most of the way. A 'Power Grip' is five times stronger than the 'Pinch Grip' used on an ornamental guardrail, according to research. Consider how difficult it would be to operate a hammer with a handle designed like a fancy stair railing. Unparalleled Prices and Services Following on from WRX Trade Satinwood, I’ve gone with Johnstone’s Aqua Guard in the fifth and final spot on this list. Whilst the Aqua Guard is a tiny step up in quality, the price jump probably doesn’t warrant choosing it over WRX if you are working with a smaller budget.In terms of scuff and scratch resistance, it definitely out-competes WRX as it’s able to withstand a lot more wear and tear. But compared to Bedec and Bradite, it doesn’t quite measure up. For example, when I conducted a scratch test with my fingernail, Aqua Guard was fine. When I used door keys, it still held up. But when I used a sharper screwdriver it came off after a few seconds of scratching. The Bedec and Bradite on the other hand were immovable.
