Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Prepare the Surface: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose or flaking material. For best results, lightly sand glossy surfaces to provide a key for the paint. Fill any holes or cracks and allow them to dry fully before sanding smooth.
- Protect Your Area: Cover floors, furniture, and any areas you don't want to paint with dust sheets or painter's tape.
- Stir Thoroughly: Open the can and stir the paint thoroughly with a paint stirrer. Ensure the colour is consistent from top to bottom before you begin painting.
Compatibility
Ronseal One Coat Everywhere Interior Paint is compatible with a broad range of interior surfaces, including:
- Walls: Ideal for plaster, drywall, and wallpapered walls.
- Ceilings: Provides a smooth, even finish on ceiling surfaces.
- Wood: Can be used on interior wood trim, skirting boards, and doors. (For bare wood, a suitable primer may enhance adhesion and finish, though the paint is versatile.)
- Other Interior Surfaces: Suitable for many other interior items where a durable, coloured finish is desired. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
*Note*: This paint is specifically formulated for interior use only and should not be applied to exterior surfaces.
Care
- Cleaning Painted Surfaces: Thanks to its washable finish, everyday marks and stains can be gently wiped away with a soft, damp cloth and mild household detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing vigorously, as this may damage the matt finish.
- Storing Leftover Paint: Ensure the lid is securely replaced on the can. Store in a cool, dry place, protected from frost and direct sunlight. Properly stored paint will last longer for touch-ups or future projects.
- Disposal: Dispose of any waste paint responsibly according to local regulations. Do not pour paint down drains.
