All the gloss

Designed for hard-wearing areas, new Resene Waterborne Super Gloss is made from a tough yet flexible hybrid waterborne-alkyd resin offering a durable, sleek gloss finish with low odour. It’s easy to apply and dries evenly, without the strong smells of traditional solventborne paints. Better yet, it's crafted using a plant-based resin and minerals so it’s a smarter, easier choice for creative projects. We gave the new Resene Waterborne Super Gloss its first hoon on a kids’ car shelf made with a recycled tyre – and the results shine! This project gleams with a slick, wet-look finish, perfect for displaying cars or treasures.
