Walls: James, Woodwork: Gauze

Our range of ‘Intelligent’ paints are smart, elegant finishes that have been formulated for today’s busy homes.

Suitable for walls, interior woodwork and metalwork (including radiators), the Intelligent paints are available in all Little Greene shades so you can use your most-loved colours without compromise.

With Intelligent Grip™ technology these finishes can be painted, direct from the tin, on almost any surface in the home, and will securely grip with no requirement for a separate primer.

Even more remarkably, as true multi-surface paints, each finish confidently adheres directly to all the common domestic building substrates: wood and plaster, but also metal (including radiators), plastics, uPVC, melamine, Formica® and even tiles and glass.

These paints resist the wear and tear of the modern family home, Intelligent Paints are up to 15 times tougher than ordinary household paints.

Containing zero added VOCs, they are kind to the environment, and with child-safe certification (EN 71-3:2019) they are completely safe to use in children’s rooms, even on cots, making them the smartest choice for all areas of the family home.

Their innovative formulations mean painted walls and woodwork can easily be washed clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge, without leaving a mark.
