Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old, flaking paint. If painting over a glossy surface, a light sanding may be required.

Visible brush marks

Apply paint with a high-quality brush or roller, using smooth, even strokes. Avoid overworking the paint. Consider a second coat for a more uniform finish.

Colour appears uneven

Ensure the paint has been stirred thoroughly. Apply two full coats, allowing adequate drying time between each application for uniform depth.

Paint is difficult to clean

Ensure the paint is fully cured (allow at least 7 days). Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. While self-priming, heavily stained or glossy surfaces may benefit from a light degrease. For best results on wooden furniture, lightly sand and clean before application.

Application: Stir paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality brush or roller. Two coats are recommended for full colour depth and durability. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls, ceilings, wooden furniture, interior woodwork, wooden floors, kitchen cupboards, metal, powder-coated radiators, and interior uPVC. Avoid directly applying to very wet areas such as shower enclosures or bath surrounds.

Care: Once fully cured (typically 7 days), the paint is completely scrubbable. Use a soft, damp cloth or a mild detergent for cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could scratch the matte surface.
