FAQs
Can this paint be used on metal surfaces?
While primarily designed for wood, plaster, and masonry, you should use a suitable primer compatible with metal before applying this paint.
How many coats are typically needed?
Due to its premium coverage, two coats are usually sufficient for a professional finish, depending on the base color.
Is this paint water-based or oil-based?
Craig & Rose premium formulas are designed for easy application; please check the specific product label on your tin for exact cleanup requirements.
Can I use this for bathroom walls?
If the area is subject to high moisture, ensure the surface is well-primed, though professional advice suggests using specifically formulated moisture-resistant paint for high-humidity zones.
How do I store leftover paint?
Seal the lid tightly and store the tin in a frost-free, dry environment away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Paint is not adhering to the surface
Ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and free from grease or dust before painting.
Visible brush marks after drying
Use a high-quality brush or roller and ensure you are not over-working the paint during application.
Paint drying too quickly to smooth out
Work in smaller sections and avoid painting in direct, intense sunlight or high-temperature environments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin your project, ensure that the surface is properly primed if you are transitioning between drastically different colors. For standard applications, stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed.
Compatibility is broad; this paint adheres well to properly prepared wood, plaster, and masonry. When cleaning up, use appropriate solvents as directed on the container, and store unused paint in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent skinning. For ongoing care, a soft cloth with mild detergent is usually sufficient to clean dried painted surfaces without damaging the sheen.
