Crown Walls & Ceilings Matt Emulsion Paint - Quiet Time - 2.5L - White

Crown Walls & Ceilings Matt Emulsion Paint is suitable for interior walls and ceilings made of plaster, plasterboard, brick, and sound, well-adhered wallpaper. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and prepared before painting.

This paint is quick-drying. It's typically touch dry in 1-2 hours, and you can apply a second coat after 2-4 hours, depending on room conditions and paint thickness.

Crown Matt Emulsion Paint can generally be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth for minor marks. However, matte finishes are typically less scrubbable than higher sheen paints, so avoid abrasive cleaning to preserve the finish.

For new, bare, or highly porous surfaces (like new plaster), a suitable primer or a mist coat (paint diluted with water) is recommended to ensure optimal adhesion and a uniform finish. On previously painted sound surfaces, priming may not be necessary.

The 2.5L tin provides excellent coverage, but the exact amount needed depends on the surface porosity, existing color, and number of coats. As a general guide, 2.5L typically covers approximately 25-30 square meters with one coat. It is always best to measure your area and consult the product label for specific coverage rates.

While it can be used, standard matt emulsion is not formulated to withstand high moisture and condensation levels found in bathrooms and kitchens. For these areas, specialized kitchen and bathroom paints with enhanced moisture and steam resistance are recommended.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and smooth. Apply paint evenly, avoiding overworking the area. Use high-quality brushes and rollers suitable for emulsion paints. Maintain a wet edge when rolling to prevent lap marks.

Check room temperature and humidity; paint dries best in well-ventilated areas with moderate temperatures. Ensure previous coats are fully dry before applying the next. Avoid applying excessively thick coats.

Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before and during use. Apply a second coat after the first has completely dried. For significant color changes or very porous surfaces, consider applying a primer or an additional coat.
