FAQs
How much paint do I need?
The paint covers approximately 12m² per litre. Calculate the total surface area to be painted and account for multiple coats.
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
Yes, the wipeable nature makes it suitable for bathrooms, but ensure good ventilation to prevent moisture build-up.
How do I clean my brushes and rollers?
Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Dispose of any paint residue properly.
What kind of finish does this paint offer?
It provides a soft sheen, offering a subtle satin finish that is wipeable.
Can I apply this paint directly over existing paint?
Yes, but it's essential to clean the existing paint and lightly sand it to ensure proper adhesion.
How long does it take for the paint to fully cure?
While it dries to the touch in 1-2 hours, it takes a few days to fully cure and harden.
Troubleshooting
Uneven finish or lap marks
Ensure a wet edge while painting and avoid applying too much or too little paint in any one area. Use a high-quality roller or brush.
Poor coverage
Ensure the surface is properly prepared. Apply a second coat. Using a primer can help too, especially on porous surfaces.
Paint is not drying
Ensure adequate ventilation and that the room temperature is within the recommended range. Check the paint expiration date.
