FAQs
Can I use this paint for high-traffic areas?
Yes, the durable formulation is designed to withstand daily wear, making it suitable for hallways and living areas.
Do I need to sand the surface before painting?
It is recommended to lightly sand glossy surfaces to create a profile for the paint to adhere to.
How long should I wait between coats?
Allow at least 4 hours between coats, though this may vary depending on ambient room temperature and humidity.
Is this paint water-based?
Yes, it is a high-performance water-based formula that allows for easier cleanup and lower odor compared to oil-based alternatives.
Can this be used on metal surfaces?
It is best suited for wood and masonry; for metal, ensure you use a metal-specific primer first for optimal adhesion.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky upon application
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush or a medium-nap roller and avoid over-working the paint while it is drying.
Poor coverage over existing dark colors
Apply a high-quality white or grey primer first to neutralize the base and provide a uniform foundation for the brown topcoat.
Paint is bubbling
Check that the surface was not damp during application and ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned of all contaminants before painting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before beginning your project, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Use a high-quality primer if you are painting over raw wood or a significantly different color to ensure the paint adheres correctly. Stir the paint thoroughly before application to ensure the pigments are evenly dispersed. For cleanup, use soap and water for brushes and rollers immediately after use. Store the remaining paint in a cool, dry place, ensuring the lid is sealed tightly to prevent skinning over the surface.
