What finishes are available?

Evelyn Grant All-In-One Paint is available in matt, eggshell, satin, and gloss finishes.

How many coats should I apply?

Two coats are generally recommended for optimal coverage and durability. However, this can vary depending on the surface and the desired finish.

What is the drying time?

Drying times can vary. Typically, it is touch dry in 1-2 hours and recoatable in 2-4 hours, but this is dependent on temperature and humidity.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and prepared. Glossy surfaces may need sanding. Check for contaminants like oil or grease.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Apply thinner, even coats. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure you are using the correct brush or roller for the paint type. Stir paint thoroughly before and during use.

Paint seems too thick

Stir the paint thoroughly. If necessary, a very small amount of water (no more than 5% per litre) can be added to aid application, particularly for spray application, but this may affect performance slightly.

Mould reappears in bathroom

Ensure the area is well-ventilated. While the paint has mould resistance, persistent high humidity or direct water ingress may require addressing the underlying cause of the moisture.

Colour does not match expectations

Colours can appear differently on various surfaces and under different lighting conditions. Test a small, inconspicuous area first. Ensure you have purchased the correct colour and finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Preparation is Key:

  1. Surface Cleaning: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. For best results, wash down surfaces with a mild detergent and water, then rinse thoroughly.
  2. Degreasing: For surfaces like kitchen cabinets or UPVC, a degreasing cleaner is recommended.
  3. Sanding (if necessary): Lightly sand glossy surfaces to create a key for adhesion. Wipe away dust with a damp cloth.
  4. Repairs: Fill any cracks or holes and allow to dry completely.

Application:

  • Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use.
  • Apply evenly using a brush, roller, or spray gun.
  • Two coats are generally recommended for optimal coverage and durability, especially on high-traffic areas or for significant colour changes.
  • Allow adequate drying time between coats, typically 2-4 hours, depending on environmental conditions.

Compatibility:

This paint is compatible with most common interior and exterior surfaces including previously painted surfaces, bare wood, metal (ensure appropriate pre-treatment if necessary), plaster, masonry, brick, stone, concrete, and plastics.

Care:

  • Clean tools and equipment immediately after use with water.
  • For cleaning painted surfaces, use a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive detergent can be used. Avoid excessive scrubbing.
  • Ensure good ventilation during application and drying.
