FAQs

How much paint will I need?

Coverage varies based on the surface, but generally, one liter covers approximately 12 square meters. Calculate the surface area and add extra for multiple coats.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom or kitchen?

While suitable for most interiors, consider a paint specifically designed for high-moisture environments in bathrooms and kitchens.

What kind of roller or brush should I use?

Use a good quality roller with a short pile for a smooth finish or a brush for cutting in and detail work.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Drying times vary; refer to the paint container for specific instructions. Generally, allow 2-4 hours between coats and 24 hours for full cure.

How do I clean up paint spills?

Wipe up spills immediately with a damp cloth. For dried paint, you may need to gently scrape it off.

What is the best way to store leftover paint?

Seal the container tightly and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Do I need to prime before painting?

Priming is highly recommended, especially on new surfaces or previously painted surfaces, to improve adhesion and coverage.

Can I tint this paint to a different color?

No. This paint is pre-mixed in the Eau De Nil color. Do not attempt to tint it.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or streaks after painting.

Ensure thorough stirring, proper roller technique (even pressure), and apply an even coat. Multiple thin coats are better than one thick coat.

Poor coverage or color not matching.

Ensure the surface is properly primed. Apply a second coat, allowing sufficient drying time between coats. Color accuracy can also be affected by the surface color and lighting.

Paint not adhering to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any contaminants. Ensure the primer is compatible and allow it to dry completely before applying the paint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose paint, dirt, or grease. Fill any holes or cracks with filler and sand smooth.
  2. Priming: Apply a suitable primer, especially on previously painted surfaces or new plasterboard. This improves adhesion and ensures an even finish.
  3. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply the first coat evenly using a brush, roller, or sprayer. Allow to dry completely before applying a second coat.
  4. Drying Time: Refer to the paint container for recommended drying times. Avoid touching the surface until fully dry.
  5. Cleaning: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Spills should be wiped up promptly.
  6. Compatibility: This paint is compatible with most interior surfaces, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted walls. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first to check for compatibility and color accuracy.
