Suede Paint vs Concrete Finish

Concrete-effect wall finishes have surged in popularity thanks to the rise of industrial and minimalist interior design. Here is how they compare to Wall FX suede paint.

Look and Feel

Concrete finishes create a cool, gray, industrial aesthetic with a smooth to slightly rough texture. Wall FX suede paint creates a warmer, softer, more organic texture that works across a wider range of interior styles from modern to traditional.

Application

Achieving a convincing concrete finish typically requires specialty products, primers, and trowel application. Wall FX is mixed into flat paint and brushed on, requiring no special tools or skills.

Cost

Concrete effect products and their required primers and sealers can add up quickly. Wall FX is a simple, affordable additive that delivers a premium result without the premium price.

Versatility

Concrete finishes work best in modern, industrial, or Scandinavian-inspired spaces. Wall FX suede paint is versatile enough to complement virtually any interior style and color palette.
