FAQs

Can I return this paint if I don't like the colour?

No. Because this paint is mixed to order in the Delft China shade, it is classified as a custom product and is not eligible for return or refund.

Is this paint suitable for bathroom walls?

While it is durable, it is primarily intended for general high-traffic areas. For bathrooms with high humidity, a specialist moisture-resistant paint might be preferred.

Does it need a primer?

If you are painting over sound, previously painted walls, a primer is usually not necessary. However, if the surface is porous or bare plaster, a mist coat or appropriate primer is recommended.

How long does it take to dry?

It is typically touch-dry within 1-2 hours, but it is recommended to wait 4-6 hours between coats for the best results.

Can I use this on woodwork?

This product is formulated for interior wall surfaces. It is not recommended for wood or metal trim; consider a dedicated wood enamel for those surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Paint finish appears uneven after drying

Ensure the wall surface is properly primed and sanded before application, and apply a second coat to achieve uniform opacity.

Scrubbing causes visible damage to the wall

Always use a soft cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid aggressive scrubbing with abrasive sponges.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable and scrubbable finish
  • Stays matt even after frequent cleaning
  • Excellent for high-traffic interior walls
  • Sophisticated Delft China blue shade
  • Smooth and consistent application

Cons

  • Non-returnable as it is a mixed-to-order product
  • Higher initial cost compared to standard emulsions
  • Limited to interior use only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure that all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose or flaking material. If painting over glossy surfaces, lightly sand the area to provide a key for the paint to adhere properly. For optimal results, use a high-quality roller or brush suitable for water-based emulsions. Once applied, the paint cures to a hard-wearing finish. For ongoing care, clean the surface using a soft cloth or sponge dampened with mild, non-abrasive soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scouring pads, as these may damage the paint film over time despite its high durability.
