Its key benefit lies in its robust formulation that offers exceptional coverage, superior durability, and resistance to wear, moisture, and staining, making it ideal for high-traffic areas.

Eggshell paint offers a satin, low-sheen finish that is more durable and washable, suitable for high-traffic areas. Chalk paint typically has a matte, velvety finish and is often used for furniture with a distinct aesthetic, usually requiring a wax or sealant for protection.
The soft sheen of eggshell paint allows for subtle changes in tone under different lighting conditions, which can add depth and character to the colour.
Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and prepared. Glossy surfaces may need sanding. A suitable primer might be required for certain materials or problematic surfaces.
Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before application. Apply paint evenly with consistent brush strokes or roller application. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure adequate lighting during application.
Check ambient temperature and humidity. Ideal application conditions are between 10°C and 25°C with good ventilation. High humidity or low temperatures can extend drying times.
Use a high-quality brush or roller designed for water-based paints. Apply paint in even strokes and avoid applying too thickly. Ensure adequate drying time between coats.
Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to improve adhesion. For previously painted surfaces, a primer may be necessary depending on the condition and type of existing paint.
Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply with a good quality brush or roller. Typically, two coats are recommended for best results. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per the manufacturer's instructions (usually 2-4 hours for recoating).
Compatibility: Suitable for interior and exterior use on walls, woodwork, metalwork (including radiators and pipes), floors, stairs, skirting boards, and kitchen units. It can be used over existing oil-based paints (after proper preparation) and on properly primed surfaces.
Care: The eggshell finish is washable. Clean spills and marks promptly with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could damage the finish.
