FAQs
Can I use this paint in a kitchen or bathroom?
This paint is designed for general interior use. If applying in a high-humidity area, ensure the room has adequate ventilation.
Does this paint require a primer?
While it has excellent coverage, a primer is always recommended on raw or highly porous surfaces to ensure even suction and finish.
How long does it take to dry?
Drying times vary based on ambient temperature and humidity, but generally it is touch-dry within a few hours and ready for a second coat as directed on the label.
Is this a water-based or oil-based paint?
Craig & Rose premium paints are typically water-based, allowing for easier cleanup with soap and water.
How should I store leftover paint?
Seal the lid tightly and store the tin upright in a frost-free environment, away from direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears patchy after the first coat
This is often normal for the first coat; ensure the second coat is applied only after the first has dried completely to achieve uniform opacity.
Visible roller marks on the wall
Ensure you are using the correct nap size for your roller and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.
Paint is not adhering well to the surface
The surface may not have been cleaned or sanded sufficiently; ensure the substrate is free of dust and contaminants before re-applying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, start by cleaning the surface to remove dust, grease, and debris. If the surface is porous or previously painted with a high-gloss finish, sand it lightly to improve adhesion. Ensure the ambient temperature is between 10C and 25C during application for optimal drying. Once finished, store the paint can in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent skinning. For cleaning, follow the product label instructions regarding water-based cleanup of brushes and tools.
