FAQs

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it is durable, it is primarily designed for general high-traffic areas; for high-humidity bathrooms, a dedicated moisture-resistant paint is often recommended.

How long does it take to dry?

It is typically touch-dry within 1 to 2 hours, but it is recommended to wait 4 to 6 hours between coats.

Is this paint suitable for exterior use?

No, this is specifically formulated for interior use only.

Can I touch up the paint later?

Yes, its durable nature makes it suitable for minor touch-ups, though exact color matching depends on the age and exposure of the original coat.

What is the best way to clean the walls?

Use a damp, lint-free cloth with water and a very mild household detergent if needed.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears patchy after one coat

Apply a second coat to ensure uniform opacity and color depth, as some surfaces require two coats for full coverage.

Visible roller marks on the wall

Ensure you maintain a 'wet edge' while painting and do not over-work the paint once it begins to tack up.

Paint not adhering to the wall

Check that the surface was properly cleaned and free of grease or dust before application. If applying to new plaster, ensure a mist coat was used first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally durable against scuffs and stains
  • Ideal for high-traffic zones like kitchens and hallways
  • Cleanable surface that does not polish or shine after wiping
  • Sophisticated, low-sheen matt appearance

Cons

  • Mixed to order and non-returnable
  • Higher initial cost compared to standard emulsions
  • Limited to specific interior use cases

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose or flaking material. Apply a suitable primer if painting onto new or porous plaster to ensure optimal adhesion. Use a high-quality synthetic brush or medium-pile roller for best results. For maintenance, simply use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent if necessary. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these can damage the finish over time. Always store the tin in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
