FAQs

How much paint will I need?

A 5L tin covers approximately 50m². Calculate the surface area to be painted to determine how many tins are needed.

Can I apply this paint in cold weather?

Avoid applying in extreme weather conditions. The ideal temperature range is between 10°C and 25°C.

How long does it take for the paint to fully cure?

While touch-dry in 1-2 hours, allow several days for the paint to fully cure and reach its maximum durability.

What surfaces is this paint suitable for?

This paint is suitable for all exterior masonry surfaces, including brick, concrete, and render.

How should I store leftover paint?

Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure the lid is sealed tightly to prevent the paint from drying out. Store away from direct sunlight.

Can I use a different colour?

How do I prepare the surface before painting?

Ensure the surface is completely dry before painting. Ensure the surface is free of any loose paint. Consider the use of a primer.
