What is the finish of this paint?

Palmerston Pink No. 243 is designed as a premium interior wall and ceiling paint with a durable, washable finish.

Does it contain high levels of VOCs?

No, this product is formulated to be low VOC, making it an eco-friendly option for indoor use.

Can I use this on wood or metal surfaces?

How much area does a 250ml tin cover?

A 250ml tin is typically intended for small touch-ups, samples, or very small feature areas rather than full room coverage.

How should I clean my brushes after use?

Clean brushes and rollers with water immediately after use to prevent the paint from hardening in the bristles.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not covering dark existing color in one coat

Apply a high-quality primer or undercoat first, then use two or more coats of Palmerston Pink for full opacity.

Surface marks are difficult to remove

Use only a soft, damp cloth and gentle pressure; avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges that damage the paint finish.

Paint appears patchy after drying

Ensure the surface was primed correctly and that the paint was thoroughly stirred before application to maintain pigment consistency.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic color profile with complex undertones
  • Highly durable and wipeable surface
  • Low VOC and eco-friendly formulation
  • Resistant to scuffs and everyday marks

Cons

  • Requires multiple coats over dark surfaces
  • Small 250ml size may be insufficient for large projects
  • Professional finish requires careful surface preparation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin application, ensure the target surface is dry, clean, and free of dust, grease, or loose flaking paint. Use a high-quality brush or roller suitable for interior emulsion paints. For the best finish, apply two coats, allowing sufficient drying time between applications as specified on the product label. When cleaning the finished wall, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap if necessary; avoid abrasive scrubbing pads that could compromise the paint film. Store the container in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out between uses.
