FAQs

What surfaces can I use Crown Matt Emulsion Paint on?

This paint is suitable for interior walls and ceilings, including surfaces like plaster, brick, and wallpaper.

How do I prepare my walls before painting?

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and smooth. Fill any holes or cracks, sand them down, and for new or very porous surfaces, apply a diluted mist coat (paint mixed with a little water) first.

How many coats of paint will I need?

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and a rich, even color. However, this can vary depending on the original surface color and texture.

How long does the paint take to dry?

Crown Matt Emulsion Paint is quick-drying. While specific times may vary based on conditions, you can generally expect it to be touch-dry within a few hours and ready for a second coat within 2-4 hours. Always refer to the product label for precise drying times.

Is this paint washable?

Matt emulsion paints generally have limited washability compared to silk or satin finishes. For light marks, you can gently wipe the surface with a very lightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent burnishing or damaging the matt finish.

What does 'Breatheasy' formulation mean?

The 'Breatheasy' formulation means the paint is 99% solvent-free. This significantly reduces the strong paint odors typically associated with decorating, making for a more pleasant and comfortable painting experience.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or visible roller marks

Ensure consistent paint application, avoid overspreading, and maintain a wet edge. Apply thin, even coats and allow proper drying time between coats. Use a high-quality roller appropriate for matt paint.

Poor coverage or color appears too light

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and primed if needed. Apply a second coat, allowing sufficient drying time. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during application to ensure pigment is evenly dispersed.

Paint not drying within expected time

Check room temperature and humidity; paint dries slower in cold or damp conditions. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid applying overly thick coats. Allow more time for drying, especially in cooler weather.

Bubbles or blistering in the paint

This can happen if the surface is not clean, or if there's excessive moisture. Ensure surfaces are dry and clean before painting. Avoid over-rolling, which can introduce air bubbles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduced Odor: The Breatheasy formula makes decorating more pleasant.
  • Easy Application: Creamy texture ensures smooth and straightforward painting.
  • Fast Project Turnaround: Quick-drying properties reduce waiting times between coats.
  • Consistent Finish: Delivers an even and rich color without streaks.
  • Tough and Durable: Provides a long-lasting finish for high-traffic areas.

Cons

  • No Sheen: Not suitable for those who prefer a satin, silk, or gloss finish.
  • Limited Washability: Matt finishes are generally less washable than those with a sheen, requiring careful cleaning.
  • Color Specific: The 'Mustard Jar' yellow may not universally complement all existing decor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Surface Preparation

  1. Clean: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, grease, and loose material.
  2. Fill: Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler and sand smooth.
  3. Prime: For new plaster or absorbent surfaces, dilute the first coat with a small amount of water (up to 10%) as a mist coat. For previously painted glossy surfaces, lightly sand to provide a key.

Application

  • Stir: Stir the paint thoroughly before use.
  • Tools: Apply with a brush or roller. For best results, use a good quality synthetic brush or medium pile roller.
  • Coats: Apply 2 coats for optimal coverage. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Compatibility

  • Suitable for plaster, brick, and wallpaper.
  • Do not mix with other paint types.

Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning Tools: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm soapy water.
  • Storage: Store unused paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent drying out.
  • Surface Care: While durable, matt finishes are generally not highly washable. For light marks, gently wipe with a very lightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.
