FAQs
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
While the paint is durable and washable, it is primarily designed for living areas. For high-humidity bathrooms, a specific moisture-resistant paint is recommended.
Is French Rose suitable for a full room or just a feature wall?
French Rose is a versatile soft coral pink; it works beautifully as a feature wall to create a focal point, or can be used throughout for a warm, bold, and immersive floral aesthetic.
Does the marble content make it difficult to clean?
No, the marble is crushed into a fine powder within the formula, which actually adds strength to the dried paint film, making it more resistant to wiping than standard flat emulsions.
Do I need to sand the wall before applying this paint?
If you are painting over existing sound paint, a light sand (de-glossing) is recommended to help with adhesion. If the wall is new plaster, ensure it is fully dried and primed.
Is this paint safe for bedrooms?
Yes, because it is low VOC and water-based, it is an excellent choice for bedrooms where indoor air quality is a priority.
How many coats are typically required?
Depending on the underlying surface color and texture, most surfaces will achieve full opacity in two coats.
Troubleshooting
Uneven color or 'flashing' on the wall
This is often due to poor surface preparation or uneven application. Ensure the wall is primed and use a high-quality roller for even distribution.
Paint peeling or flaking shortly after application
Usually caused by applying paint to a damp or dusty surface. Clean and prime the substrate thoroughly before recoating.
Visible brush or roller marks
Maintain a 'wet edge' while painting and do not over-work the paint once it begins to tack up.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Ensure walls are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or flaking paint. Fill any cracks or imperfections with a suitable filler and sand smooth.
Priming: If painting over a new or porous surface, use a high-quality primer to ensure uniform absorption and better adhesion.
Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a medium-pile roller for walls and a synthetic brush for corners and edges.
Drying: Allow at least 4 to 6 hours between coats depending on ambient temperature and humidity. Avoid deep cleaning the wall for at least 7-14 days to allow the paint to fully cure.
Care: To clean, use a soft cloth with mild, soapy water. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners which may affect the matte finish.
