FAQs

Can I use this paint on metal surfaces?

Yes, Grays Inn 167 is formulated for multi-surface use, including prepared metal, provided a suitable primer is applied first.

Do I really need an undercoat?

Yes, for the most durable and professional-grade finish, we recommend using a primer and undercoat beforehand to ensure optimal adhesion and color depth.

Is this paint suitable for high-humidity areas like bathrooms?

While durable and washable, it is primarily designed for interior woodwork and trim. Ensure your bathroom is well-ventilated if using on trim.

How long does it take to dry?

The formula is quick-drying, though specific touch-dry times can vary based on ambient temperature and humidity.

Can I apply this with a spray gun?

Yes, the paint is formulated to be compatible with spray equipment, allowing for a very smooth, factory-like finish.

How do I clean the paint once it is cured?

The finish is washable; use a soft, damp cloth with mild detergent to gently wipe away any surface marks.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush marks after drying

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint; try to lay the paint off in long, even strokes.

Paint peeling or poor adhesion

This usually indicates the surface was not properly primed; ensure a compatible primer/undercoat is used on all bare or glossy surfaces.

Uneven sheen across the surface

This is often caused by applying the paint too thinly or neglecting to use an undercoat; ensure a uniform coat is applied over a properly prepared base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best finish, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over bare wood or metal, always apply a high-quality primer and undercoat suited for your specific substrate before applying the Grays Inn 167 topcoat. Use premium synthetic brushes or high-density foam rollers to maintain the smoothness of the satin finish. For spray application, consult your equipment manual for thinning requirements if necessary. Once finished, store the remaining paint in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly secured, and clean tools immediately using appropriate solvents or warm soapy water as recommended for water-based formulas.
