The Craig & Rose 1829 Chalky Emulsion is ideal for homeowners and interior designers seeking a high-end, sophisticated aesthetic for their living spaces. This premium paint delivers an ultra-matt finish that effectively masks minor surface imperfections, making it perfect for both modern and heritage homes. While the finish is aesthetically stunning, users should note that the chalky texture requires careful handling as it is less resistant to heavy scrubbing compared to traditional sheen paints.

This emulsion is best suited for low-humidity areas like living rooms and bedrooms; it is not recommended for high-moisture environments.
If you are painting over a previously painted surface in good condition, a primer may not be necessary. However, for bare plaster or porous surfaces, a primer is essential.
It is typically touch-dry within a few hours, but it is recommended to wait at least 4 hours between coats.
It is not designed as a washable paint. Avoid scrubbing, as this can burnish or remove the matte finish.
Keep the lid firmly sealed and store in a frost-free environment, away from direct sunlight.
Ensure the wall surface is properly primed and apply a second coat to ensure complete coverage.
Use a high-quality microfiber roller sleeve and maintain a 'wet edge' while painting to avoid premature drying.
The ultra-matt finish is porous; use only a slightly damp, clean cloth and minimal pressure for spot cleaning.
Ensure that all walls are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease before application. If you are painting over a porous or previously unpainted surface, apply a suitable primer first to prevent uneven absorption. Stir the paint thoroughly before use. For care, avoid using abrasive sponges or heavy cleaning chemicals; if cleaning is necessary, gently dab the surface with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Store the paint in a cool, dry place, ensuring the lid is airtight to prevent the product from drying out.
