Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Can this paint be applied directly to old painted walls?
A: Yes, it can be applied over previously painted surfaces. For best results, lightly sand the area and ensure it is clean and dry before application.
Q: How many rooms will a 5L tin cover?
A: One 5L tin provides up to 65m² of coverage (for matt finish), sufficient for approximately two average-sized rooms depending on surface texture and colour.
Q: Is a primer necessary before application?
A: Priming is not typically required unless painting over a porous or stained surface. For best adhesion and finish on new plaster, apply a mist coat first.
Q: Can I apply this with a paint sprayer?
A: Yes, it is compatible with airless or HVLP sprayers. Always follow manufacturer recommendations for thinning, if required.
Q: Is it washable?
A: The matt finish is wipeable but not fully washable. For higher durability and ease of cleaning, consider the Silk or Soft Sheen finish options.
