Crown Walls & Ceilings Matt Emulsion Paint - Rhubarb Rose - 2.5L

> Info needed: approximate coverage area per litre (e.g., 10-12 square meters per litre) to provide specific guidance. Always check the product label for exact coverage.

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal colour depth and coverage, especially when painting over a contrasting colour. Some surfaces may only require one coat, while others might benefit from a third.

The paint is usually touch dry in 2-4 hours. Allow 4 hours before applying a second coat. Full hardness and durability may take longer, typically 7-14 days.

This standard matt emulsion is designed for walls and ceilings in general living areas. For high-humidity environments like bathrooms and kitchens, it's generally better to use paints specifically formulated for those areas (e.g., mould-resistant kitchen & bathroom paints) as they offer better resistance to moisture and steam.

Matt emulsion paints generally have limited washability. While you can gently wipe marks with a damp cloth, excessive scrubbing may burnish the finish or remove the paint. For highly washable surfaces, consider durable matt or scrubbable emulsion types.

The 'Breatheasy formula' signifies that the paint is virtually odour-free and has low levels of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), making it more pleasant to use and contributing to better indoor air quality compared to traditional paints.

Ensure the paint is thoroughly stirred before and during use. Apply paint evenly, avoiding overloading your brush or roller. Allow adequate drying time between coats and apply the recommended number of coats.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared and primed, especially if painting over a dark or porous surface. Apply sufficient coats, allowing each coat to dry fully before applying the next.

Ensure the room is well-ventilated during and after painting. Check that the room temperature is within the recommended range (10°C-25°C). Avoid applying paint too thickly.

Stir the paint thoroughly. If necessary, a very small amount of clean water can be added and mixed in to achieve desired consistency, but this should be done sparingly to avoid diluting coverage.
