Cuprinol Garden Shades - Dusky Gem - 125ml Tester Pot

This paint is suitable for wood, brick, stone, and terracotta surfaces in your garden.

The paint dries quickly, and you can recoat between 2-8 hours after the previous coat, depending on temperature and humidity.

Yes, once fully dry, the finish is resistant to water damage.

While it is safe for home use due to low VOCs, it is formulated for exterior garden use. For interior projects, specific interior paints are recommended.

As it is a water-based paint, brushes and equipment can be cleaned with water immediately after use.

A tester pot contains a small amount of paint (125ml in this case), designed for trying out a color on a small area or for very small DIY projects, rather than covering large surfaces.

No, Cuprinol Garden Shades provides a durable *matt* finish, meaning it does not have a glossy or shimmery appearance.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, free from grease or flaking paint) and that a suitable primer was used on bare wood.

Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly. Apply thin, even coats rather than one thick coat. Avoid over-brushing.

Check if the paint has been stored correctly. If slightly thickened, a very small amount of water may be added to aid application, but do not over-dilute.

Color can appear different on different surfaces and under various lighting conditions. This is expected. The tester pot is designed to confirm the color in your specific environment.
