Farrow & Ball Elephant's Breath Matt Emulsion Paint 2.5L

Modern Emulsion is a more durable, washable, and scuff-resistant finish, making it ideal for high-traffic areas and rooms prone to moisture. Estate Emulsion has a more traditional, chalky finish with lower durability and washability.

Yes, Elephant's Breath is a sophisticated neutral that can work well in a nursery. Its low VOC content and washability also make it a practical choice.

Coverage is approximately 12m² per litre, depending on the surface and application method. It's recommended to calculate the area of your walls and add a small percentage for touch-ups.

While primarily designed for walls and ceilings, Farrow & Ball offers specific finishes like Estate Eggshell or Modern Eggshell for furniture, which provide greater durability and a different sheen level.

Modern Emulsion typically dries to the touch in 2-4 hours and can be recoated after 4 hours. Full curing takes several days.

For best results, use Farrow & Ball's Wall & Ceiling Primer & Undercoat in a White & Light Tones or Mid Tones, depending on the desired depth of the final colour.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and primed. Apply a second coat for full opacity and even colour.

Colour perception varies with light and surrounding colours. Test a sample in the intended room or consult Farrow & Ball's colour pairing recommendations.

Use a soft sponge with a mild detergent solution. Rinse gently with clean water. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

Ensure paint is applied evenly with a good quality brush or roller, maintaining a 'wet edge' to avoid overlapping dry areas. Thinning slightly with water might help in some conditions, but follow manufacturer guidelines.
