Product Information

Full details

This premium emulsion paint is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals seeking a sophisticated, modern aesthetic for their interior walls and ceilings. Its primary benefit is a highly pigmented, smooth, non-reflective finish that hides minor surface imperfections, though users should be aware that the dark, matte finish can be prone to showing scuff marks in high-traffic areas if not treated with care.

FAQs

Is this paint suitable for kitchens or bathrooms?

No, this is a standard matt emulsion. For kitchens and bathrooms, a specialized moisture-resistant paint is recommended.

Do I need to use a primer?

If you are painting onto bare plaster or a very different color, a primer or mist coat is highly recommended for best adhesion.

How long does it take to dry?

It is touch-dry in a few hours, but we recommend waiting at least 4 hours between coats for optimal results.

How many coats should I apply?

For deep colors like Dark Angel, two coats are typically required to achieve full, even coverage.

Can I use this on wood or metal?

No, this product is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks or streaks

Ensure you are using the correct roller nap for your wall texture and always maintain a wet edge while painting.

Color appears patchy after one coat

Deep colors often require two full coats to reach true opacity; allow the first coat to dry completely before applying the second.

Paint peeling or bubbling

This is usually caused by painting over a dusty or greasy surface. Clean the wall thoroughly and sand down any loose flakes before repainting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Sophisticated, deep matte finish
Excellent opacity and coverage
Fast-drying for quick project turnaround
Easy to apply for smooth, streak-free results

Cons

Matte finishes may show scuff marks more easily than glossier paints
Dark colors require careful preparation for even results
Not suitable for high-humidity areas like bathrooms or kitchens

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, stir the paint thoroughly to ensure the pigments are properly mixed. Use a synthetic brush for edging and a medium-pile roller for walls and ceilings to achieve the best finish.

Compatibility: Suitable for use on interior plaster, masonry, and previously painted walls. Ensure all surfaces are sound and free from loose material.
Care: To keep the finish looking new, avoid abrasive cleaning tools. If the wall requires cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and blot gently rather than scrubbing.
Storage: Keep the lid tightly sealed and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the paint from drying out prematurely.
