FAQs
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
This paint is designed for general interior use; however, check the specific moisture resistance rating on the label if planning for high-humidity areas.
How many coats are typically required?
While the coverage is excellent, two coats are recommended for the most uniform finish and color depth.
What tools should I use to apply it?
A high-quality synthetic brush is best for cutting in, while a medium-nap roller is ideal for flat wall surfaces.
Is this paint low VOC?
Craig & Rose formulations prioritize quality and environmental standards; please check the physical product label for specific VOC data.
How should I clean my brushes after use?
Clean tools promptly with warm, soapy water while the paint is still wet.
Can I use this on furniture?
Yes, it can be used on furniture, provided you use the appropriate primer for the substrate (e.g., wood or metal) first.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears patchy or streaky
Ensure you are using the correct nap roller for your wall texture and apply a consistent, light pressure.
Poor adhesion to the surface
The surface was likely not cleaned or sanded properly; ensure all debris is removed before the next coat.
Color variation between cans
Always intermix paint from different cans in a larger bucket (boxing) before starting to ensure a uniform color batch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Fill any cracks or holes and sand the area until smooth. If applying over glossy surfaces, lightly sand the existing finish to promote better adhesion. Use a high-quality primer if moving from a very dark to a lighter shade, or if painting onto bare drywall. For care and maintenance, wait at least two weeks after painting before attempting to wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Always keep the lid tightly sealed when not in use and store in a cool, dry place to prevent the paint from skinning.
