FAQs
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
No, this product is intended for general interior walls and ceilings; it does not have the moisture resistance required for bathrooms or kitchens.
Do I need a primer?
If you are painting over a previously painted surface, a primer is often unnecessary. However, fresh plaster must be sealed with a mist coat of thinned emulsion first.
How long should I wait between coats?
Under normal conditions, it is recommended to wait at least 2-4 hours before applying the second coat.
How do I clean my brushes after use?
Because this is a water-based paint, you can easily clean your brushes and rollers using warm water and a little mild detergent.
Is this paint durable enough for a hallway?
While the matt finish provides a beautiful look, it is more susceptible to scuffs than higher-sheen paints. If your hallway is a high-traffic area, be aware that marks may require touch-ups.
Troubleshooting
Paint is streaky during application
Ensure you are using the correct roller sleeve; a medium-pile sleeve is usually best for matt emulsion.
Paint is flaking off shortly after drying
This is often due to applying paint over a dusty or greasy surface. Clean the wall thoroughly and ensure the substrate is sound before repainting.
Shows 'flashing' or uneven sheen
This happens when painting in uneven temperatures or by 'cutting in' too far in advance of the main rolling process. Keep a wet edge throughout application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose paint, dust, or grease. If the wall is chalky, use a suitable sealer first. The paint is compatible with standard rollers and brushes; synthetic filaments are recommended for the best finish. During application, keep the room well-ventilated to assist with the drying process. Once the job is complete, wash tools in warm, soapy water immediately to prevent the paint from hardening on the bristles. Store the remaining paint in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly secured to prevent skinning.
