Product Information

Full details

The Craig & Rose 1829 Deep Sung Cream Chalky Emulsion tester pot is designed for interior design enthusiasts and homeowners looking to commit to a specific wall color with confidence. This 50ml tester provides a true representation of the signature super-flat, chalky finish, allowing you to observe how the color interacts with your room's natural lighting before investing in a larger quantity. Please note that while the sample is perfect for color testing, it is intended for application on sample boards rather than direct wall surfaces to avoid issues with future paint adhesion.

FAQs

Can I use this tester pot directly on my wall?

It is strongly recommended to paint onto a sample board or thick paper instead. This allows you to move the color around the room and avoids priming issues on your actual wall.

Is the finish washable?

The Chalky Emulsion is a decorative, super-flat finish. It is not as durable as high-sheen or wipeable kitchen/bathroom paints.

How many coats should I apply for a test?

Apply two coats. The first coat acts as a base, and the second coat develops the true depth and the signature chalky texture.

Will the color look the same under LED lighting?

Artificial lighting can change color perception. Always test the sample board under the specific light bulbs you intend to use in the room.

Can I mix this with other colors?

Mixing is not recommended as it will alter the specific pigment formula developed for the 1829 collection.

Troubleshooting

The color looks different on the wall than in the pot.

Natural light dramatically shifts color perception. Always view your painted sample board in the specific room where the paint will be used.

The paint appears patchy on the sample card.

This is often caused by applying only one coat. Ensure you apply two full coats to achieve the correct depth and finish of the Chalky Emulsion.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-end chalky finish creates a luxury aesthetic
  • Allows for accurate color testing in varying daylight conditions
  • Perfect size for creating multiple test patches
  • Helps prevent costly mistakes when purchasing larger quantities

Cons

  • Not intended for full-wall coverage
  • Requires extra materials like paper or card for testing
  • Single 50ml size may be limiting if testing a very large area

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the most accurate test, ensure your brush or mini-roller is clean and free from residue of previous paint jobs. Apply the first coat thinly and evenly. Once dry, apply a second coat to ensure true opacity. For the best finish, avoid over-brushing the paint. Once testing is complete, keep your sample boards in a cool, dry place to prevent the paper from warping. If you decide to proceed with the full project, ensure your walls are properly primed and cleaned before applying the final product.
