The main difference lies in the quality of the raw materials.

Low-cost enamels often:

• fade quickly in sunlight;

• wash away under rain exposure;

• lose their gloss within 1–2 years;

• require frequent repainting.

UNIVERSAL BAYRIS alkyd enamel:

• contains high-quality fade-resistant pigments;

• uses a premium-quality alkyd binder;

• is resistant to water and cleaning agents;

• retains its colour and gloss for years.

Its high-quality alkyd formulation delivers long-lasting performance without the need for annual repainting.

At first glance, a low-cost enamel may seem like the more economical choice. In practice, however, the opposite is often true.

1. Longer Service Life

A high-quality alkyd enamel contains stable pigments and premium alkyd resins.
The coating:

• does not fade in sunlight;

• is resistant to rain exposure;

• retains its gloss for years.

Service life is up to 7 years when applied in two coats over a properly primed surface.

Low-cost enamels often require repainting after only 1–2 seasons.

2. Lower Maintenance Costs

Repainting involves more than just buying paint. It also includes:

• surface preparation;

• tools and equipment;

• labour and time;

• additional thinners and consumable materials.

One high-quality coating system is significantly more economical than several low-cost repainting cycles.

3. Better Coverage

A premium enamel provides excellent hiding power and a uniform gloss finish.
Less material consumption means greater savings per square metre.

4. Colour Stability

Professional-grade pigments provide excellent UV resistance.
The colour remains vibrant and does not become dull over time.

5. European Quality Control

The product was developed and tested in Germany.
This ensures consistent formulation, reliable performance and compliance with European durability standards.

Conclusion

A low-cost enamel may offer a lower purchase price.
A high-quality enamel delivers a lower cost of ownership over many years.

That is why professional-grade products provide better long-term value and economy.

Yes. It is suitable for:

• gates and wickets

• metal structures

• doors

• pipes

• tanks and reservoirs

• façade elements

The coating is resistant to sunlight, rain and temperature fluctuations.

Yes, but only the red-brown and yellow-brown shades are recommended for floors, stairs and thresholds.
These colours provide the optimum level of wear resistance for floor traffic and mechanical loads.

Coverage rate: 100–180 g/m² per coat.

0.9 kg covers up to 10 m²
2.7 kg covers up to 30 m²

Actual consumption depends on the porosity of the surface and the application method.

At +20°C:

• dust dry – 12 hours

• fully dry – 24 hours

Drying times will increase at lower temperatures.

Dilution of up to 10% is permitted using the recommended thinner “Lösungsmittel Bayris”.

Quick note:
A thinner affects more than just viscosity. It plays an important role in dissolving the alkyd resin correctly, controlling evaporation rate and ensuring proper film formation. Using an unsuitable or low-quality thinner may result in loss of gloss, reduced adhesion, coating defects and a shorter service life of the enamel.

“3 in 1 KORROSIONSSHUTZ” metal primer-enamel by TM “Bayris” (“3-in-1 Rust Converter Paint” by Bayris) can be purchased from retail DIY and hardware stores, major national building supply chains, Bayris-branded BudBox stores, or ordered online with delivery throughout Ukraine from the official BudBox online store or via leading marketplaces.

This thinner is ideally suited for decorative-effect alkyd coatings by TM “Bayris”, including:

• “HAMMER 3D EFFEKT” Hammered Finish Paint (Anti-Corrosion)

• “GRAPHIT EFFEKT” Enamel by TM BAYRIS (Anti-Corrosion)

Yes. This thinner can be used for:

• degreasing metal before painting;

• removing grease, oils and technical contaminants;

• cleaning tools after painting work.

In alkyd enamels and primers, the thinner does more than simply reduce viscosity. It directly affects binder dissolution, evaporation rate, protective film formation and the final adhesion of the coating.

The thinner recommended by the manufacturer has been specifically selected to match the chemical formulation of the product, including the type of alkyd resin, pigments and additives. Using a poor-quality or unsuitable thinner may result in:

• damage to the coating structure (brittleness, wrinkling or an uneven film);

• changes in drying time (either too fast or too slow);

• reduced adhesion to the substrate;

• deterioration of anti-corrosion and protective properties.

Even minor variations in thinner composition can significantly reduce the durability and service life of the coating system.

“LÖSUNGSMITTEL PRO BAYRIS” Thinner by Bayris can be purchased from retail DIY and hardware stores, major national building supply chains, Bayris-branded BudBox stores, or ordered online with delivery throughout Ukraine from the official BudBox online store or via leading marketplaces.

The main difference lies in functionality and the level of metal protection provided.

Standard alkyd enamel is a decorative coating that requires prior application of an anti-corrosion primer. It does not contain a rust converter.

3-in-1 primer-enamel “3 in 1 KORROSIONSSHUTZ” by TM “Bayris” combines three functions in a single product:

• anti-corrosion primer;

• rust converter;

• decorative finishing enamel.

This allows the product to be applied without a separate priming stage, reducing application time while maintaining a high level of corrosion protection. It is particularly suitable for metal structures, gates, machinery and outdoor metalwork exposed to weather conditions.

A 3-in-1 anti-corrosion primer-enamel is a metal coating that combines the functions of a primer, corrosion protection layer and decorative enamel in a single product. It contains a rust converter and an active zinc-based formula. Suitable for metal structures, gates, machinery, pipes, tanks and other ferrous metal surfaces.

Yes. “3 in 1 KORROSIONSSHUTZ” rust paint by Bayris can be applied directly to a firm rust layer up to 100 μm thick after removing loose and flaking rust.
This helps reduce surface preparation time without compromising corrosion protection.

Coverage rate is 100–180 g/m² per coat.
0.9 kg covers up to 10 m²
2.7 kg covers up to 30 m²
Actual consumption depends on the application method and the condition of the surface.
