FAQs

Can I use this paint on interior furniture?

Yes, this paint is suitable for interior wooden furniture. Ensure the furniture is properly prepared (cleaned, sanded, and primed if bare wood) to achieve the best and most durable flat matt finish.

How much paint will I need for my room?

A 2.5L tin typically covers approximately [Info needed: specific square meter coverage] per coat. To estimate, measure the total area of your walls and any wood surfaces you plan to paint, then multiply by the number of coats (usually two for optimal results). Info needed: detailed coverage per litre to make this answer concrete.

Is this paint washable or scrubbable?

While durable, flat matt finishes are generally less robust against heavy scrubbing than silk or eggshell paints. For cleaning, gently wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or aggressive scrubbing to preserve the delicate matt finish.

What does 'Breatheasy Technology' mean?

Breatheasy Technology signifies that the paint is formulated to be 99% solvent-free. This reduces the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into your home, contributing to a healthier indoor air quality during and after your painting project.

Do I need to prime surfaces before applying this paint?

For best results, especially on bare, porous surfaces like new plaster, or on bare wood, applying a suitable primer/undercoat or a diluted first coat of this paint is recommended. For previously painted surfaces that are in good condition, priming may not be necessary.

How long does the paint take to dry completely?

The paint is typically touch dry within 1-2 hours and can be recoated after 2-4 hours. However, full cure (when the paint reaches its maximum hardness and durability) can take several days to a week. Always refer to the specific drying times printed on the product tin for precise guidance.

Can this paint be used in bathrooms or kitchens?

While it's designed for interior use, for high-humidity areas like bathrooms and kitchens, paints specifically formulated with enhanced moisture and mould resistance are often recommended. This product is generally best suited for living areas, bedrooms, and dining rooms.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or visible brush/roller marks after drying.

Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly before and during use. Apply thinner, even coats, avoiding overloading your brush or roller. Use a high-quality brush or roller designed for matt paints. Allow adequate drying time between coats and avoid overworking the paint as it begins to dry.

Poor coverage or the colour appearing lighter than expected.

Apply a second coat, ensuring the first coat is completely dry. If painting over a very dark or contrasting original colour, a suitable primer or an additional third coat may be necessary to achieve the desired depth and trueness of colour. Ensure sufficient paint is applied without overspreading.

Paint not drying within the recommended time.

Check for adequate ventilation in the room; open windows and doors. Verify the ambient temperature and humidity levels, as paint dries slower in cold, damp conditions. Ensure that coats were applied thinly and not too thickly, as excessive paint can prolong drying times.

Paint peeling or flaking after application.

This usually indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose material before painting. For previously glossy surfaces, ensure they were lightly sanded to create a key. You may need to sand down the affected area, clean thoroughly, and reapply following proper preparation steps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Surface Preparation

For the best results, thorough surface preparation is essential:

  1. Clean: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, grease, and loose or flaking paint. Use a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly, allowing the surface to dry completely.
  2. Fill: Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler, then sand smooth once dry.
  3. Sand: Lightly sand previously painted gloss surfaces to provide a key for the new paint. For bare wood, sand to a smooth finish.
  4. Prime: For bare wood, new plaster, or highly absorbent surfaces, apply a suitable primer/undercoat or a diluted first coat of this paint (check product label for specific priming instructions). This ensures even absorption and optimal adhesion.

Application Instructions

  1. Stir: Stir the paint thoroughly before use and periodically during application to ensure uniform colour and consistency.
  2. Apply: Use a good quality synthetic brush for cutting in edges and intricate areas, and a short-pile roller for larger wall and wood surfaces.
  3. Coats: Apply in thin, even coats. Avoid overspreading or applying too thickly, as this can affect drying and finish.
  4. Drying Time: Allow sufficient drying time between coats. Typically, this paint is touch dry within 1-2 hours and recoatable after 2-4 hours. Always refer to the specific drying times on the product tin.
  5. Ventilation: Ensure good ventilation in the room during painting and drying.

Compatibility

This Crown Crafted paint is specifically formulated for:

  • Interior Walls: Suitable for plaster, plasterboard, and previously painted walls.
  • Interior Wood: Ideal for wooden skirting boards, architraves, door frames, and internal doors.

Cleaning & Care

Once the paint is fully cured (which can take several days to a week, depending on conditions), you can clean painted surfaces gently:

  • Wipe with a soft, damp cloth using plain water or a very mild, non-abrasive detergent.
  • Avoid harsh scrubbing, abrasive cleaners, or strong chemicals, as these can damage the delicate matt finish and alter the appearance of the paint.
