FAQs

Can I use this paint in a kitchen or bathroom?

While it is a high-quality emulsion, Vinyl Matt is best suited for low-humidity areas like living rooms and bedrooms. For kitchens and bathrooms, a specialized moisture-resistant paint is recommended.

How many coats are typically required?

Due to its high opacity, two coats are usually sufficient for a perfect finish on most surfaces.

Is Polished Pebble a cool or warm grey?

Polished Pebble is a versatile mid-tone grey that sits comfortably between cool and warm, making it very adaptable to various interior lighting conditions.

Can this be applied with a sprayer?

Yes, it can be sprayed, though you may need to adjust the viscosity and follow the manufacturer's guidance regarding pressure and nozzle size.

What is the best way to clean up after painting?

As this is a water-based emulsion, you can clean brushes and rollers using warm soapy water immediately after use.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks after drying

Ensure you are keeping a 'wet edge' while painting and not overworking the paint once it begins to tack up.

Paint peeling or flaking shortly after application

This is often due to an improperly prepared surface. Ensure the wall was cleaned of dust and grease, and that loose paint was scraped off prior to application.

Color mismatch in corners

Ensure you are mixing the paint thoroughly before use and applying consistent pressure during the cutting-in process.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent opacity reduces the total number of coats needed
  • Flat finish masks surface imperfections effectively
  • Easy to apply with good flow for a smooth result
  • Quick drying time facilitates efficient project completion

Cons

  • Custom-mixed colors cannot be returned or refunded
  • Matt finish can be more challenging to clean than silk or gloss finishes
  • Requires proper surface preparation for optimal results

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose or flaking material. If the surface is porous, apply a mist coat or primer first.

  • Application: Use a high-quality synthetic brush for cutting in and a medium-pile microfiber roller for large surfaces to ensure the best finish.
  • Compatibility: Compatible with most standard interior wall and ceiling substrates, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces that are in good condition.
  • Care: To maintain the appearance, avoid harsh scrubbing. If a mark occurs, gently wipe the area with a slightly damp, soft microfiber cloth to avoid burnishing the matte surface.
