FAQs

Can I use Chiswick 100 on kitchen cabinets?

Yes, its durable and scuff-resistant nature makes it suitable for interior cabinetry, provided the surface is cleaned and primed correctly.

Is this paint washable?

Yes, once the paint has fully cured, the surface is resistant to light cleaning with a damp cloth.

What tools should I use for the best finish?

A high-quality synthetic brush is recommended for cutting in, while a short-pile roller or professional spray equipment will provide the smoothest finish on large surfaces.

Can I apply this to exterior metal doors?

No, this specific product is designed for interior use only. Exposure to harsh weather will compromise the finish.

Does it need an undercoat?

While it offers excellent coverage, applying a suitable primer or undercoat is recommended for bare wood or metal surfaces to ensure optimal longevity.

Troubleshooting

Paint shows brush marks or texture

Use a high-quality synthetic brush and apply in thinner, even coats; ensure the surface is properly sanded before application.

Poor adhesion to surface

Verify the surface was cleaned of all grease and loose particles; if painting over glossy surfaces, use a primer to improve bonding.

Paint drying too fast

Work in manageable sections and avoid applying in direct sunlight or high-heat environments to keep a 'wet edge'.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, muted aesthetic suitable for modern and traditional interiors
  • Highly scuff-resistant for long-term durability
  • Compatible with a wide range of interior surfaces
  • Easy application across multiple tool types including sprayers

Cons

  • Requires careful surface preparation for best adhesion
  • Not intended for exterior use
  • Specific sheen level may show surface imperfections if not sanded properly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, start by cleaning your surface thoroughly to remove dust, grease, and debris. For previously painted woodwork, lightly sand the area to provide a "key" for the new coat to grip. Always stir the paint gently before use to ensure the pigments are properly distributed.

Compatibility: This paint is specifically formulated for interior woodwork, trim, skirting boards, doors, and metal. It is not designed for masonry or exterior exposure.

Care: Once cured, the surface is washable. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soapy water for general cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, which can dull the eggshell finish over time.
