Paint types used

See the paint types documented in Forrester's work, with links to PaintZeal references explaining each medium's properties, uses, and working characteristics.

Anti-Slip Paint

Anti-slip paint is a floor coating formulated with texture to improve traction on walking surfaces. It is different from a separate anti-slip additive, which is mixed into another compatible floor coating rather than used as the finished paint itself.

Surface types used

See the surface types documented in Forrester's work, with links to PaintZeal references explaining how each support behaves and is prepared for painting.

Concrete

Concrete is a porous building material made from cement, water, and aggregate. It hardens through curing and can continue moving moisture through its surface.
