Tikkurila Helmi 80 Gloss
Finish: Gloss 80
Select your colour
Tikkurila Helmi 80 is a hard-wearing, water-based acrylic gloss paint for interior woodwork and furniture – kitchen cabinets, doors, skirting, window frames and radiators. It gives a smooth, washable finish that does not yellow, resists cleaning products, and is toy safe to EN 71-3. Mild-odour and fully water based, it is a popular replacement for solvent trim paints. Prime with Helmi Primer. Choose White, or a colour mixed to order.
At Dawes on Goldhawk Road, Shepherd's Bush, we tint Helmi 80 to order while you wait. Pair it with Helmi Primer for the best finish. Call us on 020 8748 6711 or pop in.
