FAQs
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
This paint is designed for standard interior walls and ceilings. It is not formulated for high-humidity areas, which may lead to moisture damage.
How many coats should I apply?
For best results, we recommend two full coats to ensure even color distribution and maximum durability.
Is this paint suitable for spraying?
While primarily formulated for brush and roller application, it can be applied via spray equipment; always check your equipment manual for thinning requirements.
How do I clean scuffs off the wall?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges.
What is the drying time between coats?
The paint is typically touch-dry within 1-2 hours, but it is recommended to wait 4 hours before applying the second coat.
Troubleshooting
Paint showing brush marks
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint; apply in long, even strokes.
Poor coverage or patchy finish
Check that the surface was adequately primed and ensure you are using the correct pile height for your roller; consider an extra coat if the surface is porous.
Paint flaking after application
This is often caused by painting over loose debris or greasy surfaces. Scrape back, sand the area, and ensure the surface is clean before reapplying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over new plaster, apply a mist coat first to seal the surface. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure an even consistency. For best results, apply at temperatures above 10 degrees Celsius. Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. To maintain the finish, use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning; avoid harsh abrasive scrubbers that may damage the matt coating.
