What is the finish of this paint?

This paint has a flat matt finish, which helps to disguise minor imperfections on walls and ceilings.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, this product is mixed to order and cannot be returned or refunded.

How many coats will I need?

The paint offers excellent coverage and often requires fewer coats than standard paints, but the exact number depends on the surface and the previous colour. For best results, two coats are typically recommended.

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

How long does it take to dry?

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms or kitchens?

While it's a vinyl matt, it's primarily designed for walls and ceilings in general living areas. For high-moisture areas like bathrooms and kitchens, a paint with higher durability and washability might be more suitable.

What is the warranty on this paint?

The paint comes with a 6-month guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or streaky

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, a very small amount of water (max 1 part water to 10 parts paint) can be added for easier application, though this may slightly reduce opacity.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Ensure consistent application technique. Apply in even strokes and avoid overworking the paint. Ensure the surface is properly prepared and that adequate coverage is achieved in each coat.

Paint is not covering well

Ensure the surface is properly primed and that the paint is stirred adequately. Apply a second coat if necessary, ensuring the first coat is fully dry.

Surface shows through after drying

This indicates insufficient coverage. Apply another coat of paint once the previous coat is completely dry.
