FAQs

Is Islington No.23 suitable for bathrooms?

While durable, it is primarily an interior emulsion; consider a moisture-resistant or specific bathroom paint if the room is poorly ventilated.

Can I use this on wood or trim?

This specific product is formulated for interior walls and ceilings. For trim and woodwork, use a dedicated multi-surface paint or eggshell.

How many coats are typically required?

For best results, two coats are recommended to achieve the full colour depth and durability profile.

Is this paint safe for bedrooms?

Yes, its Low VOC formulation makes it a suitable choice for bedrooms and living spaces.

How long does it take to dry?

It is typically touch-dry within a few hours, though allow for full curing time as specified on the product label before cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears patchy after first coat

Apply a second coat once the first is completely dry to achieve uniform colour and opacity.

Paint is not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and degreased; if the wall is glossy, lightly sand it before painting.

Difficult to remove stains

Use a mild soap solution with a soft cloth; avoid scrubbing vigorously, as this can burnish the matte finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure that walls are clean, dry, and free from dust or loose paint. For new or porous surfaces, a suitable primer is recommended to ensure optimal adhesion. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure consistent pigment distribution. Apply using a high-quality synthetic brush or a medium-pile roller for best results. For maintenance, a soft, damp cloth is generally sufficient to wipe away marks. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the matte finish. Store the tin in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is sealed tightly to prevent the paint from drying out between uses.
