Eico Alterior Matt paint is a high-quality, water-based paint which is manufactured using 100% pure acrylics*.

It dries to a non-yellowing, flat finish and has excellent colour retention. Eico Alterior Matt paint is easy to use, has a high opacity and will even adhere to aged alkyd (oil-based) paints. This is an environmentally friendly product that is APEO-free and emits very little odour.

*100% pure acrylic produces a superior quality paint. Even though it requires large amounts of energy to produce pure acrylic, Eico paints are produced in a factory where the energy comes from 100 per cent free geothermal and hydropower. This means that not only can they control costs, but also the manufacturing process is carbon-neutral.
