FAQs

Can I use this paint in a kitchen or bathroom?

While it can be used in dry areas of kitchens and bathrooms, a dedicated moisture-resistant paint is recommended for areas subject to direct steam or splashing.

How many coats are typically required?

Due to its high opacity, two coats are usually sufficient for a professional finish on previously painted surfaces.

What is the best way to clean brushes after use?

Since this is a water-based emulsion, you can clean brushes and rollers with warm, soapy water immediately after use.

Can I apply this over wallpaper?

Yes, it is suitable for paper-faced linings and most standard wall coverings, provided the paper is sound and properly adhered to the wall.

How long should I wait between coats?

Under normal conditions, allow 2-4 hours for the paint to dry before applying a second coat.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears patchy or streaky

Ensure you are maintaining a 'wet edge' while painting and avoid over-spreading the paint. A second coat usually corrects inconsistencies.

Paint is not adhering well

Check that the surface is free from dust, grease, or moisture. If the wall is very porous, use a primer/sealer first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent opacity reduces total material usage
  • Flat finish masks wall blemishes and surface defects
  • Easy to apply with standard brushes and rollers
  • Fast drying formula accelerates project completion

Cons

  • Matt finishes can be prone to burnishing if scrubbed aggressively
  • Requires proper surface preparation for optimal colour consistency
  • Limited to interior use only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose or flaking material. If the surface is porous, apply a mist coat or primer first.

  • Tools: Use a synthetic brush for cutting in and a medium-pile roller for large surfaces.
  • Compatibility: Suitable for use on most interior mineral surfaces, plaster, and correctly prepared drywall.
  • Care: Avoid over-washing walls painted with matt finishes. If cleaning is necessary, use a soft, damp cloth and gentle pressure to prevent 'burnishing' the paint, which can cause glossy patches.
