How much paint do I need?

Is this paint suitable for children's rooms?

Do I need to prime the walls before painting?

In most cases, priming is not necessary, but ensure the surface is clean and dry. If the surface is particularly porous or stained, priming may be beneficial.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

Troubleshooting

Paint appears streaky after application.

Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred before and during application. Apply an even second coat, allowing for proper drying time between coats.

Paint doesn't adhere well to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any previous coatings or residues. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to improve adhesion.

The color is not what was expected.

Ensure you are using the correct color and check the lighting in the room, as this can affect how the color appears. Allow the paint to fully dry as the color may change slightly.
