FAQs

Is Blackout 41 a true black?

It is a near-black shade that features complex undertones of grey or green which shift depending on the ambient light in the room.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

This paint is designed for multi-surface interior use, but always consider the ventilation levels in your space as dead matt finishes can be sensitive to moisture.

What tools are best for application?

You can use brushes, rollers, or spray equipment depending on the scale of your project.

How do I store leftover paint?

Seal the container tightly and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Does this paint require a primer?

While the paint provides excellent coverage, using a high-quality primer is recommended for porous or previously unpainted surfaces to ensure the best durability.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or patches

Ensure the surface is properly primed and use a high-quality roller to maintain a 'wet edge' during application.

Paint showing marks after cleaning

Avoid scrubbing the dead matt surface; gently blot the area with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth.

Visible brush strokes

Use a high-quality synthetic brush and apply thin, even coats, allowing for full drying time between layers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated near-black finish with unique depth
  • Environmentally conscious plant-based ingredients
  • Versatile application compatible with rollers, brushes, and sprayers
  • Excellent light-absorbing properties due to the dead matt finish

Cons

  • Undertones may vary significantly based on room lighting
  • Requires careful preparation for best adhesion on diverse surfaces
  • Dead matt finishes can be more susceptible to burnishing in high-traffic areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or loose debris. For best results, prime porous surfaces to ensure an even finish. The paint can be applied using a variety of tools; however, ensure all spray equipment is cleaned immediately after use to prevent clogging. For care and maintenance, avoid abrasive sponges when cleaning the finished surface, as the low-sheen nature of dead matt paint can be polished or 'burnished' if scrubbed too vigorously. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth for light spot cleaning.
