Product Information

Full details

The Craig & Rose 1829 Chalky Emulsion 50ml tester pot is designed for homeowners and interior designers who want to accurately preview rich, flat matt wall colors before committing to a full-sized paint purchase. This product provides a high-quality, authentic chalky finish that allows you to test color behavior in various natural lighting conditions throughout the day. While it is perfect for testing, the small 50ml size is intended strictly for color matching and sampling rather than covering large surface areas.

FAQs

Can I use the 50ml tester pot for touch-ups?

These pots are designed primarily for color and finish testing. The finish may not match perfectly if used for small wall touch-ups due to batch variations.

Should I apply the paint directly to the wall?

We recommend painting a piece of paper or card instead, which allows you to move the color around the room.

How many coats should I apply for testing?

Two coats are recommended to ensure the true color depth and opacity are visible.

Is this paint suitable for exterior use?

No, the 1829 Chalky Emulsion is specifically formulated for interior use.

Does the finish look shiny?

No, this product features a signature super flat matt finish with very little reflection.

Troubleshooting

Color looks different than expected

Check your test swatch under different lighting conditions at various times of the day.

Streaky finish on test patch

Ensure you are using a high-quality brush or mini-roller and apply two full coats.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality pigment depth
  • Sophisticated matte finish
  • Helps prevent costly color mistakes
  • Easy to apply to test swatches
  • Represents the true color profile

Cons

  • Small quantity intended only for testing
  • Not suitable for full wall coverage
  • Requires proper application to see true finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For testing, ensure your brushes or rollers are clean and dry before dipping into the 50ml pot. If you are comparing multiple colors, use separate applicators to avoid color contamination. Since this is an emulsion-based paint, store the pot in a cool, dry place if you intend to keep it for a short time after opening. When painting onto test cards, allow the first coat to fully touch-dry before applying the second to ensure you see an accurate representation of the final opacity and finish.
