The Paint Pros Swear By, Now in Your Shed

Why Haymes UV Superior Enamel Changes the DIY Game

When the tool pros and renovation shows rave about something, that’s when you stop and look. Because when it’s good enough for seasoned painters — the ones who paint for a living — you know it’s a product that can carry its weight on your humble hallway skirting boards.

We’ve watched countless families turn patchy trim jobs into smooth, glossy finishes with one switch: Haymes Ultratrim® UV Superior Enamel. The results look like a pro came by in the night and waved a magic wand (but nope — just a better product and the right advice).

“We used to spend hours trying to mask bad brush lines and streaks. Now, it’s one coat — crisp, tough, done.”

What Makes This Stuff So Different?

You want something that goes on smooth, doesn’t stink up the house, doesn’t yellow over time, and can handle life happening — grubby kids’ hands, rogue scooters, the occasional indoor footy accident. That’s where the UV Superior Enamel earns its place on your shelf.

Water-based acrylic – easier to clean, low fumes, and dries in a flash.
Strong like enamel – tough wear resistance and a finish that doesn’t chip at the first knock.
Non-yellowing – white stays white, even in sunlit rooms.
Fast drying – touch dry in 20 minutes. Dinner can stay on track.
Certified kind – Global GreenTag certified for peace of mind.

It's equal parts brawn and brains, built for Aussie homes that do more than just look nice in listings. This enamel works across trims, doors, frames — even tricky corners and older wood that’s seen some things.

Old Tin vs. Real Science

Let’s say you’ve used the usual. The stuff in the back of the shed that smells like it was made in the 80s and refuses to dry properly. You paint, wait, wait some more… and it still scuffs if you look at it funny. That’s the old way.

The new? UV Superior Enamel dries swiftly, holds up strong, and one layer covers like two. You’re not stuck waiting for hours — or worse, redoing it in six months when it starts to peel in the humidity.

The Fiddly Bits Just Got Easier

Putting a flawless gloss on window frames or detailing around skirting used to feel like doing surgery with a mop. But with this gear, your brush glides on smoother. It levels out, covers evenly, and leaves a finish that looks like you knew exactly what you were doing — even if the kids had the TV too loud while you painted.

Where We’ve Seen It Shine

Some of our favourite customer jobs have included:

Front doors that pop in a bold colour and stay chip-free through heatwaves and storms.
Kitchen trims that cop spaghetti sauce and sticky fingers — and wipe clean with a soft cloth.
Upcycled furniture and bedroom frames given a new lease of life with a durable semi-gloss finish.

And yes, it suits interior and exterior use, which means fewer leftover tins gathering dust. We supply both High Gloss and Semi Gloss, depending how much shine you’re after.

What to Pair It With

To get the most out of Haymes Ultratrim, pick up:

Haymes Tricoat Ultra Primer – proper prep is half the job. This primer helps the enamel go on smooth and stick like glue.
Pro Series Angled Brush – perfect for trim edges and fine detailing.
Low-tack masking tape – keeps your lines crisp without tearing fresher paint.

And if you’re not sure where to start, drop into our store. We’ll help colour match, recommend the right tools, and walk you through prep like painting pros do.

Here’s the Real Win

You don’t need to be a tradie, interior designer, or precision tool wizard to pull off a paint job that makes your friends ask what company did it. You just need the right product — and the confidence it won’t come undone when the weather shifts or the dog claws at the back door again.

That’s why Ultratrim UV Superior Enamel works. Not because it promises miracles, but because it’s backed by chemistry that does what it says. One coat. Clean lines. Real durability.

The kind of paint that helps beginners look like pros — and saves weekends from becoming repaint disasters.

Cheers to better finishes,
