FAQs

Is this paint suitable for exterior doors?

No, this specific formulation is designed for interior use only.

Does the Raw Umber color change appearance?

Yes, because of its complex undertones, it will shift from light to dark depending on your room's natural and artificial lighting.

Can I use this on metal surfaces?

Yes, it is formulated to adhere to interior metal surfaces when properly prepared.

How do I clean marks off the painted surface?

Since it is a washable finish, use a soft, slightly damp cloth with mild soap if necessary to gently wipe away scuffs.

Does it need a primer?

While it has excellent coverage, we recommend priming bare wood or metal surfaces to ensure the best durability and finish.

Is this a matte or gloss finish?

This varies by specific variant; ensure you check if you have chosen the Dead Matt, Eggshell, or Gloss version for your specific project needs.

Troubleshooting

The finish looks uneven or streaky.

Ensure the surface was properly primed and sanded. Use a high-quality brush and maintain a 'wet edge' while painting.

The paint is chipping or not adhering well.

Check if the surface was cleaned of all grease and dust. If applying over glossy surfaces, ensure the surface was sufficiently sanded to provide 'tooth' for the paint to grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before painting. For previously painted surfaces, a light sanding will improve adhesion.

Surface Prep: Ensure woodwork or metal is primed if necessary.
Application: Apply evenly using a high-quality synthetic brush or roller designed for the specific paint finish.
Drying: Allow adequate time between coats as specified on the packaging for the best leveling and finish.
Care: Avoid harsh chemical cleaners when washing the surface; use a soft, damp cloth to remove marks or dirt. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the paint from drying out prematurely.
