Murobond Paint, Limewash & Specialty Finishes
Murobond paint is known for distinctive mineral, limewash and decorative finishes that bring depth, texture and subtle colour movement to interior and exterior surfaces. The Paintworld range includes specialised coatings for walls, masonry, timber, furniture and feature finishes, supported by compatible primers, sealers and protective clear coats.
Whether you are creating a soft limewashed feature wall, refreshing rendered masonry, protecting exterior timber or adding a unique finish to furniture, the right Murobond product depends on the surface, desired texture, exposure and preparation system. Explore the range below to compare Murobond paints and select the finish best suited to your project.
Murobond Product Range Overview
Pentimento Lime Wash
Murobond Pentimento creates a rich, velvety and lightly mottled limewash finish for interior and exterior walls. Its brush-applied texture works across broad wall areas and feature walls where natural movement and depth are part of the design.

Murowash Mineral Flat Paint
Murowash is a finely grained mineral flat paint with a streak-free appearance and subtle colour variation. Suitable for interior and exterior use, it provides a softer, more dimensional alternative to a conventional flat wall paint.

Tip: Treat Murobond products as a system rather than selecting colour alone. The correct primer, sealer, application method and protective topcoat can be essential to achieving the intended finish and durability.
Why Choose Murobond Paints
- Distinctive finish options: limewash, mineral, cement, timber, chalk, metallic and aged decorative effects.
- Interior and exterior versatility: products are available for walls, masonry, timber, furniture and selected architectural surfaces.
- Surface-specific systems: compatible primers, sealers and protective clear coats support correct preparation and performance.
- Low and zero-VOC options: the broader Murobond range includes water-based, low-VOC and selected zero-VOC coatings.
- Colour and texture depth: many finishes are designed to create natural variation rather than a uniform conventional paint film.
Murobond Paint Selection Checklist
1) Choose the visual effect
For a velvety, mottled feature choose Pentimento Lime Wash. For a finer mineral texture with restrained variation, consider Murowash. For an aged masonry patina, compare Cement Paint with Mineral Silicate Paint.
2) Match the product to the substrate
Masonry coatings, timber coatings and furniture finishes are not interchangeable. Identify whether the surface is render, brick, concrete, plasterboard, existing paint, timber, metal or furniture before choosing a product.
3) Confirm interior or exterior exposure
Check whether the surface is exposed to rain, UV, moisture, traffic or regular cleaning. Some decorative finishes may require a compatible sealer or protective topcoat in higher-use areas.
4) Check preparation and primer requirements
Porosity, previous coatings and surface condition can change the required system. Follow the relevant technical data sheet and use the specified Murobond primer, binder or sealer where required.
5) Confirm colour, pack size and availability
Some Murobond colours and factory-tinted products may require confirmation or ordering through a stockist. Check colour availability and order enough material to complete each continuous wall or elevation consistently.
Practical Tips for Better Results
- Test the selected colour and finish on the actual surface before completing the full project.
- Prepare the substrate thoroughly and correct inconsistent porosity, contamination or loose material.
- Use the recommended application tool; several textured finishes are designed for brush application.
- Maintain a wet edge across each wall to reduce visible lap marks in mineral and limewash finishes.
- Protect glass, paving, frames and adjacent surfaces, particularly when applying alkaline silicate coatings.
- Review the product data sheet for coverage, drying conditions, coat numbers and compatible ancillary products.
FAQs – Murobond Paint & Finishes
What is the difference between Murobond Pentimento and Murowash?
Pentimento Lime Wash creates a richer, more visibly mottled and velvety limewash effect. Murowash provides a finer, streak-free mineral flat finish with subtler colour movement. The preferred option depends on how pronounced you want the texture to appear.
Can Murobond paint be used outside?
Yes. The range includes products designed for exterior walls, masonry and timber, including Murowash, Pentimento, Cement Paint, Mineral Silicate Paint and Woodwash Exterior. Always confirm the product specification and preparation system for the surface.
Which Murobond paint is suitable for render, brick or concrete?
Cement Paint and Mineral Silicate Paint are key options for suitable masonry, while Murowash and Pentimento may also be used on properly prepared surfaces. The correct choice depends on the substrate, existing coating, exposure and desired finish.
Are Murobond paints low VOC?
The range includes numerous low-VOC water-based products and selected zero-VOC mineral coatings. VOC levels vary by product, so check the relevant technical information rather than assuming every finish has the same rating.
Do Murobond specialty finishes need a primer or sealer?
Often, yes. Primer and sealer requirements vary by substrate and finish. Pentimento and Murowash generally rely on correctly prepared, consistently porous surfaces, while mineral silicate and cement systems use their own specified primers or binders.
