FAQs

Do I really not need a primer with this paint?

Correct. This is a one-coat paint and primer in one, which is formulated to bond directly to most surfaces without a separate undercoat.

Can I use this paint in the bathroom?

Yes, it is suitable for bathrooms, including surfaces like tiles, provided they have been properly cleaned and prepped first.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is fast-drying, but you should wait at least 2 hours before applying a second coat if required.

Is this paint suitable for metal surfaces?

Yes, it adheres well to metal, making it ideal for metal furniture, frames, or fixtures.

How do I dispose of leftover paint?

Follow your local council guidelines for the disposal of water-based paints and empty containers.

What is the finish of this paint?

This specific variant provides a Satin finish, which offers a smooth, subtle sheen that is durable and easy to clean.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not sticking to a very glossy surface

Lightly sand or score the surface with fine-grit sandpaper to create a mechanical key for the paint to grip.

Streaks or brush marks appear during application

Ensure you are using a high-quality brush and painting in the direction of the wood grain; avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Saves significant time by eliminating the need for a separate primer
  • Highly versatile for both interior and exterior home surfaces
  • Environmentally friendly with low VOC levels
  • Excellent adhesion to difficult surfaces like plastic, UPVC, and glass
  • Easy to clean up using only warm water

Cons

  • Requires thorough stirring before use to ensure even colour distribution
  • Not suitable for use without proper surface preparation like cleaning or light sanding
  • Requires a 2-hour wait time if a second coat is necessary for specific textures

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal results, follow these preparation steps:

  1. Clean: Remove all surface dirt and grease using a damp cloth. Ensure the area is completely dry before application.
  2. Prep: While often not required, lightly sanding or scoring the surface can significantly improve adhesion, especially on very smooth or glossy materials.
  3. Mix: Stir the paint thoroughly in the pot to integrate all pigments before you begin.
  4. Application: Apply evenly. If a second coat is needed to achieve a specific depth of colour, wait at least 2 hours between applications.
  5. Maintenance: Clean tools immediately after use in warm, soapy water. Soaking brushes can help remove thick residue if necessary.
