FAQs

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

This paint is designed for interior walls and ceilings.

How many coats do I need?

Coverage is excellent and often requires fewer coats than standard paints, typically two coats are sufficient, but this can depend on the surface and the previous colour.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, this product is mixed to order and cannot be returned or refunded.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water.

Is this paint washable?

This is a matt finish and is not designed for high-traffic areas requiring frequent washing. It can be wiped gently with a damp cloth.

What is the drying time?

The paint is quick drying. A second coat can usually be applied after a few hours, but always check the specific drying conditions and product instructions.

What does Low VOC mean?

Low VOC means the paint contains low levels of Volatile Organic Compounds, which are chemicals that can be released into the air and may affect indoor air quality.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick for application

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, add a very small amount of clean water (no more than 10% by volume) and mix well.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Ensure the paint is applied evenly and avoid over-spreading. Use a good quality roller or brush and maintain a wet edge between strokes. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Poor coverage / colour not opaque

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and primed if necessary. Apply a second coat, ensuring the first coat is fully dry. For drastic colour changes, a primer may be required.

Paint is not drying

Check that the room has adequate ventilation and that the temperature is within the recommended range (typically 10-25°C). Avoid applying paint in excessively humid conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable filler and sand smooth. For best results, apply a suitable primer if painting over a dark or glossy surface, or on new plaster.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply with a brush, roller, or spray gun. Use a medium pile roller for best results on walls and ceilings. Apply evenly, working in a consistent direction. Avoid over-spreading.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls and ceilings. Not recommended for areas requiring high washability or prolonged exposure to moisture.

Care: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water. Wipe away any drips or spills promptly with a damp cloth. For general maintenance, the painted surface can be wiped with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
