FAQs

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it is wipeable, it is primarily designed for living areas. For high-humidity rooms like bathrooms, a dedicated moisture-resistant paint is usually recommended.

How many coats are typically required?

For best results, two coats are recommended to ensure full color depth and the desired finish.

Is this paint suitable for ceilings?

Yes, this paint is specifically formulated to provide a smooth, subtle finish that is ideal for both walls and ceilings.

What is the best way to clean the walls after painting?

Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent solution to gently wipe away marks. Avoid abrasive scrubbing.

Can this be applied over existing gloss paint?

It is recommended to lightly sand down glossy surfaces and apply a primer to ensure the emulsion adheres correctly.

Does it have a strong odor?

Like most modern water-based emulsions, it has a relatively low odor, but it is best to ensure the room is well-ventilated during and after application.

Troubleshooting

Paint is showing streaks or brush marks

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush or a medium-pile roller, and avoid overworking the paint once it begins to set.

Patchy finish or uneven color

Apply a second coat once the first is completely dry, ensuring consistent application pressure and overlap.

Paint is not adhering to the wall

Check that the surface was thoroughly cleaned of dust, oil, or grease before application; prime if the wall was previously unpainted or very porous.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides an elegant, non-reflective velvety finish
  • Easy to wipe clean for long-term maintenance
  • Excellent opacity and coverage for efficient painting
  • Hides minor surface imperfections effectively

Cons

  • Requires proper surface preparation for optimal results
  • Finish may highlight significant wall damage if not filled beforehand
  • Limited to interior use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Ensure that surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before application. If you are painting over a porous surface, use a suitable primer to improve adhesion. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure the pigments are properly distributed. For care, keep the painted surface clean by gently wiping it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these may damage the sheen finish over time. Always store the tin in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly secured to prevent the paint from drying out.
