This premium emulsion delivers a sophisticated, uniform matt finish in a versatile beige tone, making it ideal for busy living rooms, hallways, and kitchens.

FAQs

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it is very durable, it is not specifically designed for high-humidity areas like bathrooms. We recommend using a specialist moisture-resistant paint for those zones.

How many coats are typically needed?

Due to its high opacity, two full coats are usually sufficient to achieve a professional, even finish over properly prepared surfaces.

Is this paint suitable for ceilings?

Yes, its matt finish is excellent for ceilings as it hides imperfections well, though its high-durability properties are best utilized on walls.

How long should I wait between coats?

Under normal conditions, wait at least 4 hours between coats for the best results.

Can I scrub the paint immediately after drying?

It is recommended to allow the paint to cure for at least 7 days before attempting any vigorous scrubbing.

What tools should I use for application?

A medium-pile synthetic roller is ideal for walls, and a synthetic brush is recommended for edges and corners.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks after drying

Ensure you are using enough paint on the roller and maintain a 'wet edge' while painting. Do not overwork the paint once it begins to dry.

Paint not sticking to the wall

The wall surface may be dusty or oily. Clean the wall thoroughly with sugar soap and allow it to dry completely before reapplying.

Patchy finish

This often occurs due to uneven surface porosity. Apply a coat of primer or a mist coat of thinned emulsion to even out the wall absorption before applying the final coats.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable against scuffs and stains
  • Washable and scrub-resistant surface
  • Elegant, uniform matt aesthetic
  • High opacity for efficient coverage
  • Professional-grade trade quality

Cons

  • Requires proper surface preparation for best results
  • More expensive than standard domestic emulsion
  • Limited to a specific matt finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose or flaking material. If the wall is chalky or porous, apply a suitable primer first to prevent uneven absorption. The paint is compatible with standard rollers and brushes; for the best result, use a high-quality synthetic brush for cutting in corners and a roller for main wall areas. When cleaning your walls post-application, use a soft, damp cloth or sponge with a mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaning pads or strong chemical solvents, as these may damage the matt finish over time.
