FAQs

How much paint do I need?

The paint offers coverage up to 12m² per litre. Calculate the surface area of your walls and ceilings to determine the required amount.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is quick-drying. Refer to the product label for specific drying times, usually a few hours between coats.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

Yes, it can be used in bathrooms. However, ensure the area is well-ventilated, and consider the moisture levels.

What kind of roller or brush should I use?

Use a good quality brush or roller designed for water-based paints. A short-nap roller is generally recommended for a smooth finish.

Is primer necessary?

A primer is recommended for bare plaster, brick, or concrete surfaces. It can also improve adhesion on previously painted surfaces.

How do I clean my brushes and rollers?

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water.

What is the shelf life of this paint?

Unopened, the paint has a good shelf life. Store the tin in a cool, dry place and reseal tightly after use.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to improve adhesion. Consider using a primer.

Uneven finish or brush marks.

Apply the paint evenly using a good quality brush or roller. Avoid over-brushing. Apply two thin coats rather than one thick coat.

Paint appears to be peeling.

Ensure the surface is completely dry before painting. Check for any underlying issues like moisture or poor surface preparation.

Color is not as expected.

Make sure you have thoroughly mixed the paint. Test the paint in an inconspicuous area to check the colour before applying to the entire surface.
