FAQs

How many coats should I apply?

For best results, we recommend two full coats, allowing adequate drying time between each.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it is a durable interior paint, please check the specific moisture-resistance rating on the tin before using in high-humidity areas.

Does this paint require a primer?

Using a primer is highly recommended if you are painting over a porous surface, a dark color, or repairing patches on the wall.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is usually touch-dry within a few hours, but we recommend waiting at least 24 hours between coats for best results.

How should I store leftover paint?

Keep the lid tightly sealed and store in a cool, dry environment away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush marks or streaks

Ensure you are using a high-quality brush and do not over-work the paint; allow it to self-level after application.

Paint peeling after drying

This is often caused by painting over a dusty or greasy surface; ensure proper wall cleaning and priming before the next coat.

Color appears uneven

Apply a second coat to ensure uniform opacity, and ensure the paint is thoroughly stirred before starting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, professional-grade finish
  • Excellent opacity reduces the number of required coats
  • Durable surface that resists scuffs and cleaning
  • Timeless, versatile color profile

Cons

  • Requires careful preparation of surfaces for best results
  • Longer drying times compared to some quick-dry alternatives
  • Available in a specific cream palette which may limit customization

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation is key to a successful paint job. Ensure the walls are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease before application. If you are painting over a darker color, using a high-quality primer will significantly enhance the final color vibrancy. For care after application, allow the paint to cure fully for at least 14 days before attempting any wet cleaning. When cleaning is required, use a soft cloth with a mild soap solution and avoid abrasive scrubbers that may damage the finish. Store the paint in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent skinning.
