FAQs
How do I clean marks off the painted surface?
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing to preserve the matt finish and colour integrity.
Is this paint suitable for kitchens and bathrooms?
While it's washable and durable, for high humidity environments like bathrooms or areas with direct water splash, a specialized kitchen and bathroom paint with enhanced moisture resistance is often recommended for optimal long-term performance. This paint is best for general living areas prone to occasional marks.
What type of finish does this paint have?
This is a Matt Emulsion paint, providing a smooth, non-reflective finish that helps to subtly hide minor surface imperfections and provides a contemporary look.
How much paint do I need for my room?
A 2.5L tin typically covers approximately 25-30 square meters with two coats, depending on the porosity and texture of the surface. Measure your wall area and consult the product label for specific coverage rates.
Can I paint over existing wallpaper or different types of paint?
Yes, you can paint over existing wallpaper or other paints, provided the surface is clean, dry, sound, and properly prepared. If painting over gloss or a significantly darker colour, a suitable primer may be necessary to ensure good adhesion and true colour representation.
What does 'low-odour' mean?
Low-odour means the paint produces fewer strong fumes compared to traditional paints, contributing to a more pleasant painting experience, especially indoors. Good ventilation is still recommended during and after application.
How long does it take for the paint to dry?
The paint is typically touch dry in 2-4 hours, allowing for a second coat to be applied after this time. However, full hardness and optimal washability may take longer, usually several days.
Troubleshooting
Uneven or streaky finish
Ensure the surface is properly prepared, clean, and dry. Apply paint evenly using a good quality brush or roller, avoiding overspreading. Apply two coats for best coverage and consistent appearance.
Paint not covering well or requiring too many coats
Check if the surface was properly primed, especially for new or porous surfaces. Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred before and during use. Apply consistent, even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between applications.
Marks are difficult to remove or leave a shiny patch after cleaning
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild pressure. Avoid abrasive sponges, harsh household cleaners, or vigorous scrubbing, as these can damage the delicate matt finish and its washable properties.
Paint has a noticeable odour during or after application
While low-odour, ensure adequate ventilation by opening windows and doors during painting and drying. The odour should dissipate as the paint fully cures.
Paint appears darker or lighter than expected
Colour perception can vary depending on room lighting and surrounding colours. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first. Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred to mix all pigments evenly before application.
