The Craig & Rose 1829 Emulsion Tester Pot is designed for homeowners and interior designers who need to accurately assess how a paint color will look in their specific living environment before committing to a full-sized container. This 50ml sample pot provides the exact 'chalky' finish and pigment density of the full-scale emulsion, allowing for precise light testing throughout the day. While it is an excellent tool for color confidence, users should note that the small volume is strictly intended for testing purposes and testing on large surface areas may require multiple pots.

A 50ml pot is designed to cover a small sample area, typically enough for two coats on a standard A4-sized board or small wall test patch.
Yes, provided the finish and color match your existing project, the 1829 emulsion is suitable for small decor items.
Yes, the 1829 chalky emulsion is a water-based product, making brush cleanup easy with soap and water.
It is not strictly necessary for testing, but a white primer will provide the most accurate color representation if your current wall is dark or highly patterned.
Yes, all colors featured in the 1829 tester range are part of the broader Craig & Rose 1829 collection available in larger paint containers.
Ensure you are applying two full coats; the chalky finish requires building up a slight thickness to achieve the intended opacity.
Check your lighting. Colors will shift significantly between early morning cool light and evening artificial warm lighting; move your swatch to observe these changes.
Use a high-quality synthetic brush or a small dense foam roller for the smoothest application of the 50ml sample.
Before applying the sample, ensure your testing surface is clean, dry, and dust-free. If you are applying the test directly to a wall, consider priming the area if the current wall color is very dark to avoid color bleeding. After testing, close the lid tightly to prevent the emulsion from drying out if you intend to use the remainder for small touch-ups later. Store the pots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures. If applying to surfaces other than standard drywall, verify that the surface is compatible with water-based chalky emulsion.
