How long does the paint take to dry?

Drying times can vary, but generally, allow several hours between coats. Refer to the paint can for specific drying times.

How do I clean the paint brushes and rollers?

Clean brushes and rollers with water immediately after use, while the paint is still wet.

Is this paint environmentally friendly?

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While the paint is breathable, ensure adequate ventilation in bathrooms to prevent moisture buildup.

How much paint will I need?

The coverage will depend on the surface and application, but the paint tin should provide guidance on how much area it can cover.

Is priming necessary?

Priming may not be necessary if painting over a previously painted surface in good condition. If painting bare surfaces or over stains, priming is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Lightly sand glossy surfaces before painting.

Uneven finish or streaks appear.

Ensure paint is thoroughly mixed and apply in even coats, avoiding over brushing. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Colour appears different after drying.

Ensure you have the right paint. The colour may appear different in the can than it does when it dries; always test the paint in a small, inconspicuous area before painting the entire surface.
