Modern Eggshell is suitable for wood, metal, and concrete surfaces, including floors, skirting boards, doors, kitchen cabinets, and furniture.
Two coats are generally recommended for optimal coverage and durability.
Wipe down the surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Modern Eggshell is designed for interior use only. For exterior applications, use Farrow & Ball's Exterior Eggshell or appropriate exterior paint.
Coverage rates vary depending on the surface and application method, but typically you can expect to cover around 12-14 square meters per litre.
Use a primer suitable for the surface you are painting (wood, metal, etc.). Check the primer's compatibility with Modern Eggshell.
Ensure the surface is properly prepared, clean, and primed. Lightly sand glossy surfaces before painting.
Apply the paint evenly, avoid over-brushing, and use a high-quality brush or roller. Multiple thin coats usually give better results than one thick coat.
Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid painting in very humid conditions. Check the temperature and humidity of the room.
