FAQs

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it is durable, it is not a specialist moisture-resistant bathroom paint. It is best suited for hallways, living areas, and kitchens.

Does it require a primer?

For bare or highly porous surfaces, a primer is recommended to ensure the best durability and coverage.

How long until I can scrub the wall?

It is recommended to allow the paint to fully cure, typically 7 days, before performing any vigorous cleaning.

Is this paint shiny?

No, it features a smooth, flat matt finish that minimizes light reflection.

Can I apply this over existing paint?

Yes, provided the existing paint is sound, clean, and dry. Sand glossy surfaces lightly to improve adhesion.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks or lap lines

Ensure you maintain a wet edge while painting and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.

Paint finish appears shiny after cleaning

You may have used an abrasive cleaner. Stick to a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent for future cleanings.

Poor coverage or color inconsistency

Ensure the paint is stirred thoroughly and that the surface is properly primed if it was previously dark or highly porous.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resists polishing or shining after repeated scrubbing
  • Excellent for high-traffic environments like hallways
  • Provides a modern, uniform matt appearance
  • Covers imperfections well due to its flat finish
  • Durable enough to handle active living spaces

Cons

  • Requires careful surface preparation for best adhesion
  • May be more expensive than standard matt emulsion
  • Not suitable for areas with constant moisture saturation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose paint or dust. If the surface is porous, apply a suitable primer first to ensure optimal coverage. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to maintain a consistent blue hue.

Application can be performed via brush or roller; maintain a "wet edge" while painting to prevent visible lap marks. For maintenance, wait until the paint is fully cured before attempting to scrub; use a soft, damp cloth or sponge with a mild detergent for spot cleaning. Avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the finish over time.
