FAQs

How much paint do I need?

Coverage depends on the surface. Check the paint can for the recommended coverage per litre. Generally, 2.5L will cover a standard room with two coats.

How long does it take to dry?

Drying times vary based on the environment. Generally, allow 2-4 hours between coats.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While the paint is washable, consider a paint specifically designed for high-humidity environments for bathrooms.

What tools do I need?

You'll need brushes or rollers, a paint tray, a stirrer, and painter's tape to protect trim and edges.

How do I clean my brushes and rollers?

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific cleaning solvent or technique.

Can I touch up the paint later?

Yes, touch-ups are possible, but ensure the surface is clean before applying. Slight colour variations may occur, so feather the edges.

Is this paint suitable for exterior use?

No, this paint is designed for interior walls and ceilings only.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or streaks

Ensure proper surface preparation. Apply paint evenly, avoiding over-brushing or over-rolling. Use a high-quality brush or roller. Apply thin, even coats and allow to dry completely between coats.

Poor coverage

Ensure you are using the correct application technique. Apply two coats for best results. Consider using a primer if painting over a dark colour.

Paint not adhering properly

Ensure the surface is properly prepared, clean, and dry before painting. Use a suitable primer for the surface.

Colour variations

Ensure the paint is thoroughly mixed before application. Apply consistently across the surface and check lighting conditions.
