FAQs

Is this paint suitable for kitchens or bathrooms?

While durable and washable, this is a standard interior emulsion and is not specifically formulated to resist the high humidity levels found in bathrooms or kitchens.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, because this paint is mixed to order, it cannot be returned or exchanged once the order has been processed.

How many coats are typically required?

To achieve the full depth of color and the intended velvet finish, we recommend two full coats.

What is the drying time between coats?

The paint typically dries to the touch in 1-2 hours; we recommend waiting at least 4 hours before applying the second coat.

Can I use this on trim or woodwork?

This paint is designed specifically for walls and ceilings; for woodwork, we recommend using a dedicated trim paint for better adhesion and durability.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks or streaking

Ensure you are using a high-quality microfiber roller and maintaining a 'wet edge' while painting. Do not overwork the paint once it begins to tack up.

Inconsistent finish or patchy color

This often results from uneven surface porosity. Ensure the wall is properly primed and sealed before applying the topcoats.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Delivers a luxurious, soft-touch velvet aesthetic
  • High-pigment formula ensures deep, long-lasting color
  • Durable enough for regular household cleaning
  • Provides excellent coverage for a smooth, professional finish
  • Suitable for both period properties and modern homes

Cons

  • Non-returnable as it is a custom made-to-order product
  • Requires careful planning of color quantities before purchase
  • Matte finishes can show scuffs more readily than high-gloss options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose paint or dust. If painting over porous surfaces, use a suitable primer to ensure uniform absorption. The paint should be stirred thoroughly before use to ensure the clays and pigments are evenly distributed. For maintenance, a soft, damp cloth can be used to wipe away surface marks; avoid abrasive cleaners or stiff scrubbing brushes, as these can disturb the matte finish. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct frost or extreme heat to preserve the shelf life of remaining paint.
