Crown Walls & Ceilings Always Orchid Matt Emulsion Paint 2.5L - Pink

Generally, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and depth of color, especially when painting over a contrasting color or new plaster. Always allow the first coat to dry completely before applying the second.

This standard matt emulsion paint is best suited for general living areas like bedrooms, living rooms, and dining rooms. For high-humidity environments like bathrooms and kitchens, it's advisable to use paints specifically formulated with enhanced durability and mould resistance.

Matt emulsion provides a flat, non-reflective, and modern finish with no surface shine. It helps to disguise minor surface imperfections and creates a soft, elegant look.

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly until all paint residue is gone, then reshape and allow to air dry.

No, Crown Walls & Ceilings Matt Emulsion Paint is specifically formulated for interior use on walls and ceilings. It is not designed to withstand outdoor weather conditions.

The paint is typically touch dry within 2-4 hours. You should allow at least 4 hours before applying a second coat. Always refer to the specific drying times on the product label as environmental conditions can affect this.

Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and properly prepared (primed if necessary). Apply paint in thin, even coats, allowing adequate drying time between coats (at least 4 hours). Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred before and during use for consistent color and texture.

Verify the surface was not overly porous; new plaster might need a mist coat (thinned paint) or primer. Ensure you are not over-spreading the paint too thinly. Apply sufficient paint on your roller or brush to achieve good opacity with each stroke.

This often indicates a problem with surface preparation. Ensure the surface was completely clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or flaky old paint. Sanding glossy surfaces slightly can also improve adhesion. Ensure the previous coat or primer was fully dry before applying the next.
