FAQs

How much paint will I need?

Coverage varies based on the surface, but a 5L tin typically covers around 65 square meters. It's always best to calculate the area and add extra for a second coat.

Can I use this paint on wood?

While primarily designed for walls and ceilings, it can be used on wood if properly primed. Ensure you test a small area first to check adhesion.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Drying times can vary depending on conditions. Generally, allow 2-4 hours for touch dry, and 16-24 hours for recoating. Always check the product label for specific recommendations.

How do I clean my brushes and rollers?

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Ensure all paint is removed to extend the life of your tools.

Is this paint suitable for kitchens and bathrooms?

While washable, consider using a paint specifically designed for kitchens and bathrooms due to their increased humidity levels.

What kind of finish does this paint offer?

It provides a velvet matt finish, which offers a soft, non-reflective appearance.

What is the shelf life of this paint?

The shelf life is typically several years if stored properly. Store the paint in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is sealed tightly.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish after application.

Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred, apply an even coat, and avoid over-brushing or over-rolling. Consider using a quality roller or brush.

Paint is not covering the surface adequately.

Ensure proper surface preparation, use two coats of paint, and allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Paint appears to be a different shade than expected.

Check the lighting conditions in the room as this can affect the perceived color. Also, ensure you are using the correct product and color code.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose paint, grease, or dirt. Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler and sand smooth.
  2. Priming: Use a suitable primer for the surface being painted, especially on bare plaster or previously painted surfaces that are glossy.
  3. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply two coats for best results, allowing sufficient drying time between coats (as per the manufacturer's instructions).
  4. Application Tools: Use a brush or roller designed for emulsion paints. A roller will typically provide a more even finish on large surfaces.
  5. Compatibility: Compatible with most common interior surfaces including plaster, drywall, and previously painted walls. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
  6. Care: Clean spills and marks promptly with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
