Troubleshooting
Paint appears patchy after one coat
Ensure the surface was adequately cleaned and primed; if the underlying wall is a very dark or highly porous colour, a second light touch may be required.
Difficulty opening the tester bottle
Ensure the cap is clean of dried paint residue and use a soft cloth to provide better grip for unscrewing.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High opacity reduces the need for multiple coats
- Water-based formula is easy to clean
- Provides a realistic matt finish for accurate colour matching
- Small size is ideal for testing multiple spots on a wall
Cons
- Small 30ml volume is insufficient for painting large surface areas
- Limited to interior use only
- Mineral Mist shade may appear different under artificial lighting versus natural light
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before application. If applying to a dark wall, a primer may be necessary to see the true representation of the Mineral Mist colour. The water-based nature of this paint means you can clean brushes and rollers easily with warm soapy water immediately after use. Always store the tester in a cool, dry place and ensure the cap is tightly sealed if any paint remains after your initial test.
