White Knight Paints Questions & Answers

Hello,
I don’t expect an answer from white night but was hoping someone out there can help me. I went to Bunnings paint. I purchased Dulux Step 1 primer sealer undercoat oil based, recommend for my repaint of Baltic pine shelves as undercoat. I also wanted a very durable top coat for the shelves as they are to be use ad garage storage and need to be heavy duty, however I did not want a gloss. I was recommended White Knight rust guard epoxy enamel black Matt as top coat, the ultimate scratch resistant surface. The Dulux primer dried beautifully and after a few days I applied the white knight epoxy enamel. I was told as both are oil based there should be no problems. I now have a sticky surface and am devastated as I have painted 3 book shelves with these products. Neither the Dulux nor White Knight technical advise can be of assistance as the products are from competing companies and they don’t want to know. Also when you get your paint from Bunnings they really can’t provide you with technical advise.
Devastated

Hi Lydia,
Epoxy Enamel is a slow-cure product. Sounds like the product has not cured. Although moderate hardness can be achieved after 7 days it will continue to cure for at least a month. Solution is to allow longer curing time.
Can I repaint white knight undercoat, I have done once, but would like to redo it?
I’m using tub & tile on an enamel bathtub. Am I able to wet sand between coats?

The Bunnings rep has supplied me tile and laminate paint. Will this do the job??
Don’t touch and White Knight product, absolute rubbish, don’t get caught like the rest of us, read the reviews.
I have used White Knight Laminate on my bench before, I sanded it, sprayed with Laminate cleaner and low and behold it is still tacky after 2.5 days, some parts of it is dry but other not. Why is this so and what must I do to correct it. I would appreciate your answer urgently.
OK, so I used White Knight Hi-Temp spray paint on the bowl of a Weber-style barbecue. (After several years of use, the original black paint had gone soft and gooey). I carefully prepped the bowl by scraping/sanding/grinding off the old (failed) paint to shiny bare metal, and roughed it up with emery paper. I sprayed multiple coats, waiting the required time between each coat. A week later we used the barby to cook lamb chops. Afterwards when I cleaned it, I found that the new paint had gone soft and sticky, just like the original paint had done..
What did do that was wrong?
Is gloss bergundy still available in spray can
i find it interesting that apparently these reviews are monitored by White Knight’ representatives yet there are never any responses- no sorry, no ... how can we help, what can we do to make it better- total silence!

I have timber pantry doors which have been previously painted with enamel paint. Can I use white knight laminate paint to repaint Pantry doors after sanding and undercoating
Hi Robyn,
I’d head on down to a proper paint shop & ask some of the staff there.
Somewhere like Paint Spot or Haynes would probably be quite a good source of information.
Hope this helps :-)
thankyou
After 40 hours strokes oil based enamel painted over previously varnished pine is still tacky.
I sanded the surface as per instructions and cleaned well, average temperature is around 22 degrees C.
Should I wait further or scrub off the paint and start again?
Sounds like it might have been applied a bit too thick but it's probably just a crap paint formula. I would wait until it fully dries before doing anything. I'm not sure, personally I stopped using W...
Read morehite Knights when they moved production to China and changed the formula. Ever since they did that (without notice) I've stopped using it because it's total crap and we shouldn't have to pay the same price for this deceitful company to get away with it and profit from. Then we as workers have to spend all our time fixing our work because of their incompetence. I used the paint for over 10 years then had to stop because it just wouldn't work well enough for me since the change and was slowing me down. Don't buy it. And if you have some cans already take them back and demand a refund. It's the only way they will learn.I think it is a bit of both. I put unit out in sun for a while and it did dry off. I put a second coat on and don't seem to have much control of thickness. Last time I will be using this product.
Can I thin, What do I thin with, and how much can I thin, White Knight Rust Guard TRUE BITE Primer ?
I have just used White Knight Tub & basin on my vanity unit. I ended up with a lot of brush marks as the
paint was drying very quickly. I have only applied the first coat. Am I able to sand the first coat before I apply the top coat ?
What is the lowest weather temperature you can use White Night Strokes oil based enamel? Or ideal temperature to stop it running?
