Crown Walls & Ceilings Matt Emulsion Paint 5L - Cream

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and depth of color. However, this can vary depending on the original surface color and condition. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

The 'Breatheasy' formula from Crown is designed to be virtually odour-free, significantly reducing the paint smell during and after application. It also contains 99% less VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) than traditional paints, making it more environmentally friendly.

This Matt Emulsion is ideal for general living areas like bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways. For high-humidity areas like bathrooms and kitchens, Crown generally offers specific 'Kitchen & Bathroom' paints with enhanced moisture and steam resistance. While it can be used, a specialized product might offer better long-term durability in these environments.

Clean all painting tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear and reshape bristles before drying.

Matt Emulsion provides a flat, non-reflective finish with no surface shine. This modern look is excellent for hiding minor surface imperfections and provides a soft, elegant appearance.

Generally, Crown Matt Emulsion is touch dry in 2-4 hours. It's recommended to wait at least 4 hours before applying a second coat. Always refer to the specific instructions on the paint can for precise drying times.

Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred before and during use. Apply paint evenly, avoiding overloading brushes or rollers. Apply sufficient coats, allowing proper drying time between each.

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure it is clean, dry, dust-free, and any flaking paint is removed. For glossy surfaces, light sanding or a suitable primer may be necessary.

Ensure the paint is well-stirred. Apply an even, consistent coat. If painting over a very dark or strong color, a primer or an additional coat might be needed.

Ensure adequate ventilation in the room. Check room temperature and humidity, as very cold or damp conditions can prolong drying times. Apply paint in recommended thickness, avoiding excessively thick coats.
