FAQs
Can this paint be used on metal surfaces?
While designed for versatility, always ensure you use an appropriate metal primer first to prevent rust and ensure proper adhesion.
How many coats do I need?
Generally, two coats are recommended for the best color depth and durability, though one may suffice over a similar shade.
Is this paint low-odor?
Craig & Rose paints are formulated for professional use with balanced VOC levels; ensure adequate ventilation in your workspace while painting.
Can I use this for exterior doors?
Yes, this paint is suitable for exterior use and will provide a durable, weather-resistant finish on doors.
How long does it take to dry?
Touch dry time is typically 1-2 hours, but allow 4-6 hours between coats for optimal curing.
Troubleshooting
Paint is bubbling during application
This usually indicates moisture on the surface or applying in direct, intense heat. Ensure the surface is completely dry and paint in shaded, moderate temperatures.
Visible roller marks after drying
Ensure you are using the correct pile length roller for your surface and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best results, start by cleaning the surface to remove dust, grease, and loose debris. If applying to a previously painted surface, sand lightly to provide a "key" for the new coat. For bare surfaces, always use a compatible primer to improve adhesion and color consistency.
Once applied, maintain the finish by gently cleaning with a soft cloth and mild soap if necessary; avoid harsh chemical cleaners that can degrade the protective layer. Store the tin in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out or skinning over.
