FAQs

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

This paint is designed for interior walls and ceilings.

How many coats of paint will I need?

The paint offers excellent coverage, often requiring fewer coats than standard paints. However, the exact number of coats depends on the surface condition and the previous colour. Typically, 2-3 coats are sufficient for a good finish.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, this product is mixed to order, which means it cannot be returned or refunded.

How do I clean my brushes and rollers after use?

Clean all application tools immediately after use with warm water and soap.

What is the finish of this paint?

The paint has a flat matt finish, which helps to disguise minor imperfections on walls and ceilings.

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms or kitchens?

While suitable for general interior use, it's recommended to use specific moisture and grease-resistant paints in areas like bathrooms and kitchens where high humidity and frequent cleaning are common. This vinyl matt is best suited for living areas and bedrooms.

How long does the paint take to dry?

The paint dries quickly, allowing you to recoat within a few hours, though specific drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or difficult to apply

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, you may add a very small amount of clean water (e.g., 100ml per 5L can), stirring well. Ensure you are using the correct application tool for the paint type.

Uneven coverage or patchy finish

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and primed if necessary. Apply paint evenly, maintaining a wet edge to avoid lap marks. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per manufacturer instructions. Check if sufficient coats have been applied.

Poor adhesion or peeling

The surface may not have been clean, dry, or properly prepared before painting. Remove any loose or peeling paint, sand the area smooth, and reapply using appropriate primer and paint.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent coverage, potentially reducing the number of coats needed.
  • The flat matt finish helps to conceal minor wall imperfections.
  • Easy to apply, making the decorating process less strenuous.
  • Quick drying time speeds up project completion.
  • Suitable for both walls and ceilings in interior spaces.

Cons

  • Cannot be returned or refunded as it is mixed to order.
  • Matt finish may not be suitable for high-traffic areas prone to heavy staining.
  • Requires careful surface preparation for optimal results, as with any paint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and peeling paint. For best results, apply a suitable primer if painting over a dark or glossy surface. Stir the paint thoroughly before application.

Compatibility: This is a water-based emulsion paint suitable for interior walls and ceilings. It is compatible with most standard paint rollers, brushes, and spray equipment. Always test on an inconspicuous area if unsure.

Care: Clean application tools (brushes, rollers) immediately after use with warm water. Wipe away any spills or splatters on adjacent surfaces promptly with a damp cloth. For maintenance of painted surfaces, use a soft, damp cloth for gentle cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
