FAQs

What is the best way to apply Farrow & Ball Estate Emulsion?

Use a brush or roller for even application. Apply two coats for best results.

Is Oxford Stone suitable for high-traffic areas?

No, it is best suited for low-traffic areas like bedrooms and living rooms.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Typically, the paint dries within 2-4 hours, but allow sufficient time between coats.

Can I use Oxford Stone in a kitchen or bathroom?

It is not recommended due to the moisture and potential for wear and tear. Consider a more durable Farrow & Ball finish for these areas.

How do I clean the painted surface?

Gently wipe the surface with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.

What is the coverage of a 5L tin?

Coverage depends on the surface and application, but typically a 5L tin covers approximately 35 square meters.

What is the meaning of VOC?

VOC stands for Volatile Organic Compounds. Paints with low VOCs are healthier for your home because they have very little odor.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish after application.

Ensure even coverage and avoid over-brushing or rolling. Allow proper drying time between coats.

Paint not covering the surface adequately.

Apply a second coat, ensuring complete coverage. Make sure the surface is properly primed.
