Product Information

Full details

Vintro Paint in Grey is a durable matt emulsion for interior walls, ceilings, woodwork, and metalwork, offering a classic, sophisticated look. Ideal for busy households and nurseries due to its child-safe, water-based formula and wipeable finish, it provides exceptional coverage and depth of colour. A potential consideration is its fast drying time, which may require quicker application on larger areas.

FAQs

Is Vintro Matt Emulsion suitable for bathrooms and kitchens?

While durable and wipeable, this emulsion is best suited for general interior walls and ceilings. For high-moisture areas like bathrooms and kitchens, consider Vintro's specialized ranges if available, or ensure excellent ventilation.

How many coats of Vintro Paint do I need?

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and colour depth. However, this can vary depending on the surface and the existing colour.

Can I use this paint on radiators?

Yes, Vintro Matt Emulsion can be used on woodwork and metal, including radiators, provided they are properly prepared and primed for metal surfaces.

What is the coverage rate per litre?

Coverage rates can vary, but generally, this emulsion provides exceptional coverage. Refer to the specific product data sheet or can for precise coverage estimates.

How long does the paint last on the wall?

The paint is designed for durability and, with proper application and care, can last for many years, maintaining its colour and finish.

Can I paint over existing oil-based paint?

Yes, but proper preparation is crucial. Clean the surface thoroughly, lightly sand to create a key, and apply a suitable water-based primer before applying the Vintro Matt Emulsion.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly prepared, clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. A primer may be needed for certain surfaces like metal or glossy finishes.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Apply paint evenly, working in manageable sections, especially on large areas due to its fast drying time. Use a high-quality brush or roller. Ensure consistent application technique.

Colour appears different after drying

Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly before application. Apply a second coat if necessary, as depth of colour can be enhanced with additional layers. Allow full drying time.

Difficulty wiping clean

Ensure paint is fully cured (allow several days). Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.

Pros and Cons

  • Child-safe and eco-friendly water-based formula.
  • Highly durable and easy to clean with a wipeable surface.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. For previously painted surfaces, lightly sand and clean. For woodwork and metal, a suitable primer is recommended. For glossy surfaces, a thorough clean and light abrasion or primer is advised.

Application: Stir paint well before use. Apply with a brush, roller, or spray. For best results, apply two coats. Allow at least 1 hour for touch-drying and 2 hours before applying a second coat.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls, ceilings, woodwork, and metalwork. Not recommended for exterior use or floors.

Care: Clean spills and splatters immediately with a damp cloth. For general maintenance, the surface can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
