FAQs

How much paint do I need?

Coverage depends on the surface and application method. A 2.5L tin typically covers around 30-40 square meters. Calculate your wall area and consider two coats.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom or kitchen?

While suitable for most interiors, consider a paint specifically designed for high-humidity areas in bathrooms or kitchens to prevent mold growth.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

The paint typically dries to touch within 2-4 hours. Allow 4-6 hours between coats.

How do I clean my brushes and rollers?

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.

Can I touch up the paint later?

Yes, touch-ups are possible, but ensure the surface is clean. Color matching is usually good, but it's best to apply to an inconspicuous area first.

Is this paint environmentally friendly?

Berger Matt Emulsion is a water-based paint, which is considered a more environmentally friendly option compared to oil-based paints.

What colors are available?

Berger Matt Emulsion is available in a wide range of colors. The grey variant provides a neutral look that complements various design schemes.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears streaky or uneven after application.

Ensure even paint distribution, apply thinner coats, and avoid over-brushing. Make sure the roller is fully loaded before painting.

Paint is not covering the existing color adequately.

Apply a second coat, or consider using a primer for better coverage, especially when painting over darker colors.

Paint is peeling or flaking after drying.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared, remove any loose paint, and prime before painting.

Paint dries too slowly.

Ensure proper ventilation, and avoid painting in very humid conditions. Check the room temperature, as it should be within the recommended range.
