FAQs
Can I use this paint on kitchen cabinets?
Yes, its durable nature and scuff resistance make it suitable for woodwork, though cabinets may require careful preparation and priming.
Is this paint low VOC?

How many coats are recommended?
For full color depth and durability, we recommend two full coats.
Does Beverly paint look different in different lights?
Yes, Beverly is a versatile green that appears more vibrant in bright daylight and more muted or conservative in lower light settings.
Can I touch up small scuffs?
Yes, the paint is designed to be easy to clean, but larger repairs may require a light re-coat of the affected area to maintain a uniform finish.
Does it need a top coat or varnish?
No, Dead Flat is designed as a standalone finish and does not require an additional varnish.
Troubleshooting
Visible roller marks or streaks
Ensure you are maintaining a 'wet edge' while painting and avoid overworking the paint once it begins to set.
Paint not adhering to metal surfaces
Confirm that the metal was properly cleaned and primed with an appropriate metal-specific primer before applying the Dead Flat paint.
Finish appears uneven or patchy
Check that the surface was properly sealed or primed with a suitable undercoat, especially if applying over porous or previously repaired surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from debris, dust, or grease before application. For best results, use a high-quality synthetic brush for woodwork and a medium-pile roller for walls. If applying to metal, ensure any rust is treated and a suitable metal primer is used first. Clean tools promptly after use with warm soapy water. When cleaning the finished surface, use a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive scrubbers that may damage the flat finish. Always store containers in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from skinning.
