FAQs

Is this paint suitable for exterior use?

No, Rustins Quick Dry Matt Emulsion Paint is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings only.

How do I clean my brushes after using this paint?

Clean brushes and equipment immediately after use with warm water and mild soap.

What kind of finish does this paint provide?

It dries to a smooth, non-reflective matt finish.

Can I use this paint on wood or metal?

This paint is intended for walls and ceilings. For wood or metal, a different primer and finish would be more appropriate.

What sizes is this paint available in?

The paint is available in 250ml and 500ml sizes.

What colors are available?

It is available in White (BS00E55), Magnolia (BS08B15), and Grey.

How long does it take to dry?

It is quick drying, allowing for recoating typically within 1-2 hours, though complete drying may take longer depending on conditions.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick for application

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, a small amount of clean water (less than 5%) can be added, but avoid over-thinning.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Ensure paint is applied evenly with consistent brush strokes. Avoid overworking the paint. Apply a second coat if needed once the first is dry.

Poor coverage on the first coat

This is normal for some colours. Apply a second coat after the first has dried completely to achieve a uniform finish.

Paint not drying properly

Ensure application is in a well-ventilated area with appropriate temperature (typically above 10°C). Thick application or high humidity can slow drying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick drying time reduces project duration.
  • Low odor makes it pleasant to use indoors.
  • Water cleanup simplifies the process and tool maintenance.
  • Provides a smooth, attractive matt finish.
  • Suitable for various interior surfaces.

Cons

  • Primarily intended for interior touch-ups and smaller areas.
  • Matt finish may show more imperfections than silk or satin finishes if the surface is not prepared well.
  • Availability in specific BS colours might limit broader decorative choices.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. Apply a suitable primer if necessary, especially on new or previously painted surfaces. Stir the paint thoroughly before application.

Compatibility: This water-borne acrylic emulsion is designed for interior walls and ceilings. It is suitable for use over existing emulsion paints after proper preparation. Always test on an inconspicuous area first if applying over a different type of finish.

Care: Use water and mild soap for cleaning application tools immediately after use. For painted surfaces, clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners which may damage the matt finish.
