Crown Walls & Ceilings Matt Emulsion Paint - Light Fern - 2.5L - Green

This paint is specifically designed for interior walls and ceilings. It works well on plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces, provided they are clean, dry, and sound.

Typically, Crown Matt Emulsion is touch dry in 2-4 hours. You can usually apply a second coat after 4-6 hours. Full cure time can vary based on humidity and temperature, but generally, it's fully hardened in 24 hours.

A primer is not always necessary for previously painted, sound surfaces. However, for new plaster, very absorbent surfaces, or when painting over a significantly darker colour, a suitable primer or a thinned 'mist coat' (first coat thinned with water) is recommended for best results.

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm water. Ensure all paint residue is removed before allowing them to dry for storage.

While it can be used in general interior spaces, for high-humidity areas like bathrooms and kitchens, it's generally recommended to use specialized kitchen and bathroom paints that offer enhanced durability and resistance to moisture and mould.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared, clean, and smooth. Apply paint evenly, avoiding overworking the area. Use high-quality brushes and rollers appropriate for emulsion paint. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Thoroughly stir the paint before and during use to ensure colour consistency. If painting over a very dark or highly absorbent surface, consider applying a primer or an initial mist coat (thinned paint) to provide a more uniform base.

While the `breatheasy` formula significantly reduces odour, some faint smell may be present, especially in poorly ventilated areas. Ensure continuous good ventilation during and after painting until the paint is fully dry.

This usually indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure the surface was completely clean, dry, and free of loose paint, dust, or grease before application. Old, unstable paint layers should be removed or properly primed.
