FAQs

Can I use this paint on exterior surfaces?

No, this product is specifically formulated for interior use on woodwork and metal surfaces.

Is a primer mandatory?

While not strictly impossible to use without, we highly recommend using a primer to ensure the best coverage, durability, and adhesion.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Since this is a high-quality paint, check the specific solvent instructions on the can; generally, water-based formulas clean up with soap and warm water.

Is this paint safe for high-traffic areas?

Yes, its scuff-resistant and washable properties make it ideal for areas like hallways and doors.

Can I spray this paint?

Yes, this paint is compatible with professional spray equipment for a smooth, even finish.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly to the surface

Ensure the surface was cleaned of grease and dust, and verify that a primer was used prior to painting.

Visible brush marks after drying

Try using a high-quality synthetic brush and ensure you are not over-working the paint; allow the self-leveling properties to work as it dries.

The finish looks patchy

Ensure a consistent primer layer was applied and apply a second coat once the first is fully touch-dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and scuff-resistant finish suitable for high-traffic areas
  • Highly versatile for both wood and metal surfaces
  • Easy to clean and maintain due to its washable nature
  • High-quality, archival-grade pigment for bold color impact
  • Environmentally friendly plant-based formula

Cons

  • Requires a primer for best adhesion
  • Limited to interior use only
  • Daring shade may require more coats if covering very dark surfaces

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure your surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before painting. Always apply a suitable primer to improve adhesion, especially on porous woods or smooth metal surfaces. You can apply the paint using a synthetic-bristle brush for intricate trim, a high-density foam roller for flatter surfaces, or a professional spray unit for larger, complex areas. For ongoing care, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dirt or scuffs, ensuring you do not use harsh abrasive cleaners that could dull the eggshell sheen.
