  3. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply two coats of Estate Emulsion, allowing sufficient drying time between coats (as indicated on the product label).
  4. Tools: Use a high-quality brush or roller for the best finish. A brush is recommended for cutting in around edges and details, while a roller is suitable for larger areas.
