This emulsion is intended for dry interior rooms. It is not recommended for high-humidity areas like bathrooms or kitchens where moisture and condensation are common.
While it offers excellent coverage, two coats are generally recommended to achieve the true depth of color and the desired chalky finish.
Yes, it is formulated with low VOC content, making it a more environmentally friendly choice for your home.
Use a good quality synthetic bristle brush for cutting in and a medium-pile microfiber roller for the walls to ensure a smooth, even application.
Use a soft, damp cloth to lightly blot the area. Do not scrub hard, as the chalky finish can be easily burnished.
If you are painting over previously painted sound walls, a primer may not be necessary. However, for new plaster or porous surfaces, a mist coat or primer is highly recommended.
Ensure you are using a high-quality roller and maintaining a 'wet edge' by not over-spreading the paint.
This is often due to poor surface preparation; ensure the wall was sanded and cleaned of all dust prior to application.
Preparation is key when using this emulsion. Ensure your surfaces are clean, dry, and free of loose paint or dust. If you are painting onto fresh plaster, ensure it is fully cured and use a suitable primer first.
