FAQs

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

Yes, its durable and washable formula makes it suitable for bathrooms, provided the room has adequate ventilation.

Does this paint require a primer?

While it can be applied directly to many surfaces, using a primer is highly recommended for metal or bare wood to ensure the best longevity and finish.

How many coats are typically required?

Two coats are generally recommended for full coverage and the desired sheen depth.

Can this be applied with a spray gun?

Yes, this paint is compatible with spray application. Ensure your equipment is properly cleaned and the paint is thinned according to the spray tool manufacturer's guidelines if necessary.

Is this a water-based paint?

Yes, the low-odour and low-VOC formulation is water-based, allowing for easy cleanup with soap and water.

Troubleshooting

Paint is showing brush marks

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint. Thinning the paint slightly with a small amount of water (if compatible) can help it level better.

Poor adhesion to the surface

The surface may not have been cleaned or sanded properly. Clean the surface with a degreaser and lightly abrade it with fine-grit sandpaper before re-applying.

Visible surface imperfections

Gloss finishes highlight bumps and scratches. Use a filler to smooth out imperfections and sand the area flat before painting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, balanced 17% sheen finish
  • Suitable for a wide range of interior surfaces
  • Highly durable and easy to wash
  • Quick-drying properties speed up project completion
  • Low-odour and low-VOC composition for better air quality

  • Requires careful surface preparation for a flawless finish
  • Gloss finishes tend to highlight underlying surface imperfections

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying the paint, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or loose debris. For woodwork and metal, light sanding is recommended to improve adhesion. If you are painting over a dark color or a porous surface, applying a suitable primer will ensure the best color payoff. The paint can be applied via brush, roller, or spray. For cleaning, use warm soapy water for brushes and rollers used with water-based systems. Store the paint in a cool, dry place, ensuring the lid is securely closed to prevent skinning or drying out. Always perform a patch test on a small area to ensure compatibility with existing paint layers.
