The Evelyn Grant All-in-One Paint is for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners seeking a professional, durable finish across multiple surfaces. Its key benefit is simplifying projects by combining paint and primer, offering excellent coverage for interior and exterior applications. A potential caveat is the need for proper surface preparation, even with the primer integrated. This advanced, water-based emulsion is engineered in the UK, designed for walls, ceilings, wood, and masonry, providing mould and condensation resistance and a weatherproof finish.

Yes, Evelyn Grant All-in-One Paint can be used on metal surfaces after proper preparation, ensuring they are clean and free from rust. A light sanding and a primer coat might be beneficial for optimal adhesion.
Drying times can vary based on temperature, humidity, and application thickness. Typically, it is touch-dry within 1-2 hours and ready for a second coat after 4 hours. Ensure full curing before heavy use.
This paint is not specifically formulated for high-heat surfaces like radiators. For best results and durability, a paint designed for radiators is recommended.
Coverage varies by surface and application method. A general guide is approximately 10-12 square meters per litre. Always perform a patch test on your specific surface to determine actual coverage.
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent drying out.
While you can mix paints, it is generally not recommended to mix different types or finishes of paint, as this can affect the final properties. Mixing the same product type and finish is usually safe.
Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and prepared. Remove any dust, grease, or loose paint. For very glossy surfaces, consider light sanding before application.
Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly. Apply with even, overlapping strokes. Avoid overworking the paint, and ensure consistent pressure. For roller marks, try a second coat applied perpendicular to the first.
Ensure the area was thoroughly cleaned of existing mould before painting. Check for underlying moisture issues, such as poor ventilation or leaks, and address these. Apply a second coat of paint if necessary.
Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, a very small amount of water (e.g., 5-10% by volume) can be added for easier application, but this may slightly reduce durability. Avoid over-diluting.
Preparation: Before application, ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or flaking paint. For optimal adhesion, especially on glossy or previously painted surfaces, light sanding may be beneficial. Remove any loose material from masonry surfaces.
Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a brush, roller, or sprayer. For best results, apply in a well-ventilated area. Two coats are often recommended for deep colours or to ensure maximum durability, especially on high-traffic surfaces.
Compatibility: This water-based emulsion is designed for a wide range of surfaces including interior/exterior walls, ceilings, wood, metal, and masonry. It is not recommended for direct application onto chalky surfaces or where prolonged immersion in water is expected.
Care: Clean brushes, rollers, and equipment immediately after use with water. For painted surfaces, clean gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners which can damage the finish.
