FAQs

Can I use this paint on furniture?

Yes, Charterhouse No.4 is suitable for interior woodwork, making it an excellent choice for cabinets, chairs, and other furniture items.

Is this paint suitable for exterior doors?

No, this specific product is formulated for interior use only.

How many coats are typically required?

For best results, we recommend two coats to achieve full opacity and maximum durability.

Is the paint low odor?

Yes, it is designed for interior use and features a modern, user-friendly formula.

How do I store leftover paint?

Seal the lid tightly and store the tin in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Can I apply this over old oil-based paint?

It is recommended to lightly sand the existing surface to provide a key for the new paint to adhere effectively.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering to the surface

Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and degreased. If applying to bare wood or metal, apply a suitable primer first.

Visible brush marks after drying

Use a high-quality synthetic brush and ensure you are not over-working the paint. Maintain a 'wet edge' while painting.

Finish appears duller or glossier than expected

Ensure the paint is stirred thoroughly before application, as uneven mixing of the pigments can affect the sheen level.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and scuff-resistant finish
  • Versatile application on both wood and metal
  • Sophisticated, modern white tone
  • Easy to clean and maintain
  • Professional-grade quality

Cons

  • Requires proper priming on raw surfaces
  • Limited to interior use
  • Smaller 250ml size may require multiple tins for large projects

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or loose debris before application. For raw or previously untreated surfaces, applying a suitable primer is recommended to ensure optimal adhesion and long-term durability.

When applying, use a high-quality synthetic brush or a short-pile roller for a smooth finish. Because the paint is quick-drying, work in manageable sections to avoid overlapping partially dried edges. Clean tools immediately after use with soap and water. Once fully cured, the surface is resistant to light washing; avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners that could dull the eggshell sheen.
