FAQs

Is this paint suitable for exterior surfaces?

No, this specific formulation is designed strictly for interior use on woodwork, trim, and metal.

Do I absolutely need a primer?

While it can be applied directly, we strongly recommend a primer to even out surfaces and ensure better adhesion for a longer-lasting finish.

How long does it take to dry?

The formula is quick-drying, but specific times depend on room temperature and humidity levels; check the container for precise recoat windows.

Can this be used on metal surfaces?

Yes, this paint is specifically formulated to be suitable for both interior woodwork and metal surfaces.

How do I clean the paint off my brushes?

Since it is a plant-based formula, consult the product label for the recommended solvent, though most water-based formulas can be cleaned with soap and warm water.

Is the finish high-gloss?

No, this is an eggshell finish, which provides a soft, low-sheen look rather than a high-gloss reflection.

Troubleshooting

Paint is peeling or flaking shortly after application.

This is likely due to lack of primer or improper surface preparation. Ensure the surface is sanded and primed before repainting.

Brush marks are visible in the finish.

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint as it begins to set. Maintain a 'wet edge' while painting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, start by ensuring all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of grease. Always apply a high-quality primer before the first coat of paint to improve adhesion and ensure an even color distribution. This paint is compatible with wood, trim, and metal surfaces. For care, once fully cured, use a soft cloth with mild soapy water to wipe away marks. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that may degrade the eggshell sheen over time.
