Full details

FAQs

Can I use Kensington Rose No.22 on walls?

This specific variant is an eggshell paint designed for woodwork, trim, and metal. For walls, consider the Mylands Marble Matt Emulsion range.

How many coats are typically needed?

For optimal coverage and color depth, two coats are generally recommended over a prepared surface.

Is this paint suitable for outdoor use?

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

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is quick-drying, but it is best to wait at least 4 hours between coats depending on ambient temperature and humidity.

Does it require a primer?

While it adheres well to properly prepared wood, a primer is highly recommended for metal or previously gloss-painted surfaces.

How do I maintain the finish?

The finish is washable; simply use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dust or smudges.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears streaky or shows brush marks

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint as it begins to dry.

Poor adhesion to metal surfaces

Verify that a suitable metal primer was applied before the eggshell topcoat.

Paint is chipping in high-traffic areas

Check that the surface was properly sanded and degreased before the initial application; clean surfaces are essential for bond strength.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant, airy color profile inspired by classic design
  • High level of durability and scuff resistance
  • Quick-drying properties expedite projects
  • Easy to clean and maintain on high-traffic trim
  • Provides a premium, smooth professional finish

Cons

  • Specific to woodwork, trim, and metal surfaces
  • Lacks the matte finish required for general wall coverage
  • Requires careful preparation for optimal adhesion on metal

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, start by ensuring the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. For wood, light sanding is recommended to create a mechanical key for the paint. If applying to metal, use a compatible primer first to ensure maximum bond strength. Apply thin, even coats rather than one heavy application to prevent drips and ensure the eggshell finish cures evenly. When cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive detergent; avoid harsh scrubbing or chemical cleaners that might degrade the sheen. Always store the tin in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly secured to prevent skinning.
