Farrow & Ball Dead Flat Paint - Red - 5L

Farrow & Ball Dead Flat has an ultra-matte, dead flat finish with only 2% sheen, meaning it reflects very little light.

Yes, this paint is suitable for metal surfaces, including radiators, provided they are properly prepared and primed.

It is recommended to apply two coats of Dead Flat paint for optimal colour depth and durability, after preparing and priming the surface as needed.

Yes, the Dead Flat finish is surprisingly durable and scuff-resistant, making it easy to clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent.

Drying times can vary, but typically it can be re-coated after 4-6 hours. Always refer to the product tin for precise drying instructions.

While durable, Dead Flat is not specifically designed for high-moisture environments like bathrooms or kitchens where condensation is frequent. Consider Farrow & Ball's Estate Eggshell or Modern Eggshell for these areas.

The dimensions of the 5L tin are approximately 20cm x 20cm x 25cm, though this can vary slightly by batch.

Ensure even application, maintain a wet edge, and use a high-quality brush or roller. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Verify that the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, and primed if necessary). Ensure previous paint layers were sound.

Colours can look different depending on light. Test a small area in the intended room before full application. Consider using Farrow & Ball primers recommended for the chosen colour.
