Abstract: The invention relates to an alkyd resin composition comprising components: (A) at least an auto-oxidisable alkyd resin component comprising unsaturated fatty acid or its derivative, selected from: (i) alpha, beta-unsaturated ester-functional alkyd resin; (ii) combination of a alpha, beta-unsaturated ester functional material and an alkyd resin; and (iii) mixture of components (i) and (ii); Wherein the alkyd has an oil length of at least 20% unsaturated fatty acids; (B) a daylight photoinitiator; (C) a metal drier; and (D) optionally a liquid medium selected from the group consisting of an organic solvent, water, non-volatile diluent and mixtures thereof; wherein if the liquid medium is present and is: a) substantially based on organic solvent and/or diluent then the VOC is <300 g/l, or b) substantially based on water then the VOC is <100 g/l.
