FAQs
What surfaces can I use this paint on?
This paint is suitable for interior wood (bare, varnished, or painted), melamine, and metal surfaces.
How do I clean painted furniture?
The paint is washable. You can clean marks and stains using a soft, damp cloth and mild household cleaning products. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Is this paint durable?
Yes, the paint is designed to be scratch-resistant, helping to maintain the look of your furniture over time.
Can I use this paint outdoors?

What does 'satin' finish mean?
A satin finish has a slight sheen, offering a smooth, low-lustre appearance that is less reflective than gloss but offers more durability and washability than matte.
Is primer necessary?
While not always required, a primer can improve adhesion and coverage, especially on bare wood or metal, or on very dark or glossy surfaces.
How long does the paint take to dry?
Refer to the product packaging for specific drying times, but typically allow adequate time between coats for best results.
Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering well
Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, free from grease) and lightly sanded if necessary. Check if a primer was needed for the specific surface type.
Uneven finish or brush marks
Apply paint in thin, even coats. Use a good quality brush or roller suitable for furniture paint. Avoid over-brushing.
Color looks different than expected
Colors can appear differently under various lighting conditions. Test the paint in the intended location under natural and artificial light before full application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Preparation: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from grease, dust, and any loose material. For previously varnished or painted surfaces, a light sanding may be required to ensure adhesion. For bare wood or metal, a primer may be beneficial.
Application: Apply thinly and evenly using a good quality brush or roller designed for furniture paint. Two thin coats are generally better than one thick coat. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per manufacturer recommendations.
Compatibility: Suitable for interior wood (bare, varnished, painted), melamine, and metal surfaces.
Care: Once fully cured, the paint is washable and scratch-resistant. Clean spills and marks promptly with a soft, damp cloth. Mild household cleaning products can be used for tougher stains, but avoid abrasive cleaners.
