Setup Instructions
- Prepare the Surface: Ensure all surfaces (walls and wood) are clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, and loose or flaking paint. For previously painted surfaces, sand lightly to create a key. For bare wood or new plaster, a suitable primer may be beneficial, though the paint is designed for direct application on appropriately prepared surfaces.
- Protect Your Space: Cover floors, furniture, and any areas not to be painted with dust sheets. Use painter's tape to mask off edges, skirting boards, and fixtures for crisp lines.
- Stir Thoroughly: Open the can and stir the paint well before use to ensure the colour and consistency are uniform.
- Application: Apply paint using a good quality brush or roller. Work in even strokes, aiming for thin, consistent coats. Allow adequate drying time between coats (Info needed: specific drying time). Two coats are typically recommended for full coverage and depth of colour.
Compatibility
This paint is formulated for *interior use only*. It is compatible with:
- Interior Walls (e.g., plaster, drywall)
- Interior Woodwork (e.g., skirting boards, doors, window frames)
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning Tools: As this is a water-based paint, clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly until clean.
- Surface Care: Once fully cured, painted surfaces can typically be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth if needed. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which could damage the matt finish.
- Storage: Store the paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent drying out.
