FAQs

How much area does one tin cover?

A 750ml tin covers approximately 14m² per litre on average.

Can I use this paint on outdoor furniture?

This paint is designed for indoor use. For outdoor furniture, consider a paint specifically designed for outdoor conditions.

Do I need to prime before painting?

No, priming is generally not required, but it's recommended for particularly glossy or difficult surfaces.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

It dries to the touch in about 1 hour. Full curing takes longer, so handle with care initially.

Can I distress the paint?

Yes, you can achieve a distressed look by applying two colors and sanding the top layer to reveal the color underneath.

How do I clean my painted furniture?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the surface clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I apply a topcoat?

Yes, for added protection and durability, apply Rust-Oleum Furniture Finishing Wax or Lacquer.

Is the paint water-based?

Yes, the paint is water-based.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and lightly sanded if glossy. Apply a second coat or consider a primer for difficult surfaces.

Uneven finish.

Apply the paint in even strokes, avoid overloading the brush or roller. Multiple thin coats usually give better results than one thick coat.

Color is not as expected.

Make sure you have tested the color. The final color appearance can be impacted by the underlying surface color and lighting.
