Resene SpaceCote Flat: enamel-style durability

12 Oct 2026

In the lead up to the release of Resene’s new Curated Colours range, SpaceCote Flat is being updated to meet the growing demand for flat finishes.

Originally developed as a flat variant of SpaceCote Low Sheen, and released in 2007, SpaceCote Flat was formulated as a waterborne enamel paint with traditional enamel-style toughness.

This latest update introduces three new bases – ochre, green and magenta – adding even greater colour choice to the mix, while maintaining the same wipeable surface homeowners have come to depend on, meaning finger and scuff marks are easily removed from the wall surface.

With its near dead-flat finish, which helps disguise surface imperfections on walls and ceilings, SpaceCote Flat is also an ideal solution to minimising the effects of critical light, allowing dark colours, especially, to take on an extra dimension when used.

Resene SpaceCote Flat is also available in Kitchen & Bathroom, Fly Deterrent, and Commercial Spray Grade variants, providing customers with a solution to all possible needs.
