FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions):

Q: Can I use this on walls too?
A: While it’s specifically formulated for ceilings, it can be used on walls with minor surface cracks, although a wall-specific filler or paint may be more suitable for vertical surfaces.

Q: Will it stop new cracks from forming?
A: No paint can prevent structural cracking, but this product prevents existing hairline cracks from reappearing by flexing with minor movement.

Q: Does it require a primer?
A: Not usually. For very porous or previously unpainted surfaces, a mist coat of diluted paint may be beneficial.

Q: Can it be painted over with ceiling emulsion?
A: Yes, it can be overpainted with most water-based emulsions if you prefer a different finish or colour.

Q: Is it suitable for textured ceilings (e.g. Artex)?
A: It is best used on smooth or previously smooth ceilings. It may not be effective at covering textured surfaces.
