Setup, Compatibility & Care
Surface Preparation
- Clean: Ensure all surfaces are completely clean, dry, and free from any dust, dirt, grease, or loose material. For existing greasy kitchen walls, a strong degreaser is highly recommended to ensure proper adhesion.
- Fill & Sand: Fill any cracks or holes with an appropriate filler, then sand smooth and clean off dust.
- Prime (Optional but Recommended): For new plaster, highly porous surfaces, or when painting over very strong or dark existing colours, applying a suitable primer or a diluted first coat of this paint (refer to product label for specific dilution ratios, usually up to 10% water) is recommended to achieve the best finish and coverage.
- Stir: Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to ensure a consistent colour and texture.
Application
Apply with a good quality brush or roller. Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and durability. Allow adequate drying time between coats, as specified on the product label (usually 2-4 hours).
Compatibility
This paint is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings in areas susceptible to grease and high condensation, such as kitchens, utility rooms, and bathrooms.
Care & Maintenance
Once fully cured, painted surfaces can be effectively cleaned. Use a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent to gently wipe away grease and marks. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the matt finish.
