Product Information
Full details
This premium Craig & Rose Brown paint is designed for homeowners and professional decorators seeking a sophisticated, high-quality finish for interior surfaces. Its primary benefit is providing excellent coverage and a smooth, durable application that results in a professional-grade aesthetic. However, users should note that as a deep, rich colour, proper surface priming is essential to ensure the true hue is accurately reflected and to avoid needing excessive coats.

FAQs
Can this paint be used in bathrooms?
This product is designed for interior use. Check the technical label to see if your specific room requires a specialized moisture-resistant formulation.
How long should I wait between coats?
Refer to the drying time indicated on the paint tin, as temperature and humidity significantly affect the re-coat window.
Do I need a primer?
While it has excellent coverage, a primer is highly recommended when painting over porous surfaces or significantly lighter colours.
Is this paint suitable for woodwork?
This paint is primarily formulated for wall surfaces; please verify label instructions before applying to trim or doors.
How should I store leftover paint?
Seal the lid tightly and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or freezing temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Visible roller marks
Ensure you are using a high-quality medium-pile roller and maintaining a 'wet edge' by not over-working the paint once it begins to tack up.
Patchy appearance after first coat
Deep colours often require a tinted primer or a second full coat; ensure the surface was properly primed before application.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality, professional finish

- Durable and long-lasting results

Cons
- Deep colours may require more precise surface preparation
- Higher investment compared to standard budget paints
- Limited to interior applications
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure your walls are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over a lighter colour, apply a suitable primer to help the deep brown pigment achieve its full depth in fewer coats.
Compatibility: This paint is suitable for standard interior surfaces such as plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces that have been sanded to provide a "key."
Care: To maintain the finish, avoid using abrasive cleaning pads. If the surface becomes marked, a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water is usually sufficient to remove surface debris without damaging the sheen.
