FAQs

Does this paint require a primer?

For bare wood or metal, a high-quality primer is recommended to ensure proper adhesion and a professional finish.

How long does it take to dry?

The water-based formula is designed for quick drying, though touch-dry times vary based on room temperature and humidity.

Can I use this on bathroom furniture?

Yes, its durable and washable nature makes it a great choice for bathrooms and kitchens.

How should I clean my brushes?

Because it is a water-based paint, you can clean your brushes easily with warm water and mild soap.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush marks after drying

Use a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid overworking the paint; apply in long, even strokes.

Paint peeling or flaking

Ensure the underlying surface was properly sanded and primed; remove loose debris before reapplying.

Uneven sheen or patchiness

Check that the surface is uniform in texture; ensure you are using enough paint and applying evenly across the entire section.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease or loose paint. For bare wood, apply a suitable primer first to prevent uneven absorption. Stir the paint thoroughly before use and apply using a high-quality synthetic brush or a short-pile roller for a smooth finish. Clean tools immediately with warm, soapy water after use. Store the tin in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures to preserve the shelf life of the remaining paint.
