Crown Walls & Ceilings Seldom Seen Matt Emulsion Paint - Grey - 5L

This Crown Matt Emulsion Paint is ideal for interior walls and ceilings, including surfaces like plaster, brick, wallpaper, and drywall/plasterboard.

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and depth of color. However, depending on the original surface color and desired finish, one or three coats might be necessary.

The paint is quick-drying. It is usually touch dry within 2-4 hours, but always refer to the specific drying times on the product label for recoating, which is generally around 4 hours.

This paint features a 'virtually odour-free breatheasy formula'. While it has a significantly reduced odor compared to traditional paints, ensure good ventilation during and after painting for maximum comfort.

While it can be used in any interior room, standard matt emulsion is generally not recommended for high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens as it may not withstand the humidity and frequent cleaning required. Consider a specialized bathroom or kitchen paint for these areas.

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly until all paint residue is gone, then reshape and allow to dry.

A primer is recommended for best results, especially on new, bare plaster, very porous surfaces, or when changing a dramatic color. This helps with adhesion, coverage, and achieving a uniform finish.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared, clean, and smooth. Apply paint evenly with consistent pressure, avoiding overworking the paint. Allow adequate drying time between coats and use a good quality roller with appropriate nap.

Apply a suitable primer before painting, especially on new or highly porous surfaces, or when changing from a very dark to a light color. Ensure each coat is fully dry before applying the next, and apply generously without overloading the roller/brush.

Paint color can vary slightly based on screen display or lighting conditions. Always apply a small test patch in an inconspicuous area and allow it to dry fully to see the true color in your room's lighting. Ensure thorough stirring before and during use to maintain color consistency.
