FAQs
Does this paint require a primer?
While the paint has high coverage, using a primer is recommended if you are painting over a drastically different color or a porous surface.
How long should I wait between coats?
Follow the drying time instructions on the label; generally, 2-4 hours is required depending on ambient temperature and humidity.
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
This paint is formulated for general interior use. Ensure the bathroom is well-ventilated to prevent moisture from affecting the cure.
What is the best way to clean my brushes?
Clean brushes immediately after use with warm, soapy water while the paint is still wet.
How much paint will I need?
Measure the square footage of your walls and check the coverage rate listed on the paint container, typically allowing for two coats.
Is this paint finish matte or gloss?
This product is designed for a professional, smooth finish. Please check the specific product label for the exact sheen level (e.g., flat, eggshell, or satin).
Troubleshooting
Paint is showing brush strokes.
Use a higher quality synthetic brush and ensure you are not over-working the paint as it begins to tack.
Color appears uneven after first coat.
Ensure the surface was primed correctly. Apply a second coat once the first is completely dry, ensuring a consistent application technique.
Paint is peeling or bubbling.
Check that the surface was completely dry and free of oil or dust before application. Sand down the affected area and reapply.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, start by cleaning the surface to remove dust, grease, and debris. If applying over a previous dark color, use a high-quality primer to ensure the blue pigment reaches its full potential. For care, avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaning agents immediately after application; allow the paint to fully cure for at least two weeks before performing a light wipe-down with a damp cloth if necessary. Store the paint container in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the formulation from drying out or developing a skin.
