FAQs

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

This paint is suitable for wood, laminate, and previously painted surfaces.

Do I need to prime before painting?

Priming is recommended for bare wood and laminate surfaces for better adhesion and durability. Test a small area first.

How many coats of paint should I apply?

Generally, two coats are recommended for full coverage. However, the number of coats may vary depending on the colour and surface.

How do I clean my painted furniture?

Wipe the surface with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is the drying time?

The paint is quick-drying. Allow a few hours between coats. Refer to the product label for specific details.

Can I use this paint outdoors?

This paint is primarily designed for indoor use. Outdoor use is not recommended.

How do I achieve a distressed look?

After the paint has dried, lightly sand the edges and corners to create a distressed effect.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and lightly sanded. Apply a primer if necessary.

Paint finish is not smooth.

Use a high-quality brush or roller. Apply thin, even coats, and avoid over-brushing.
