The Craig & Rose 1829 Chalky Emulsion is ideal for homeowners and interior designers seeking a sophisticated, ultra-matt finish for indoor walls and ceilings. This high-quality emulsion provides excellent depth of color and a durable, professional-grade surface. While it offers superior aesthetic appeal, users should note that the chalky finish requires careful application to avoid surface scuffs, making it best suited for low-to-medium traffic areas rather than high-impact zones.

This emulsion is designed primarily for dry interior rooms; it is not recommended for high-humidity areas like bathrooms or kitchens.
The paint is quick-drying, typically touch-dry within a few hours, though drying times can vary based on room temperature and humidity.
For previously painted, sound surfaces, a primer is often unnecessary, but new or porous plaster should always be primed first.
It provides a classic, ultra-matt, chalky finish that is non-reflective and sophisticated.
This product is formulated for walls and ceilings. Use a dedicated trim or wood paint for skirting boards and door frames.
The first coat often acts as a primer; ensure a second coat is applied once the first is fully dry to achieve full opacity.
Avoid over-spreading the paint. Ensure you maintain a 'wet edge' while painting to allow the emulsion to level properly.
Before applying the paint, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Use a high-quality synthetic brush or a medium-pile roller for application. For best results, stir the paint thoroughly before use. If applying to new or porous plaster, prime the surface first to ensure proper adhesion. For routine maintenance, avoid abrasive cleaners; gently wipe surfaces with a damp cloth if necessary. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from frost to preserve the integrity of the emulsion.
