Is this paint suitable for kitchens and bathrooms?

How should I prepare the surface before painting?

How do I clean my tools after painting?
Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water.
Troubleshooting
Paint not covering evenly
Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, primed if necessary) and that paint is applied evenly. Stir paint thoroughly before and during use.
Brush marks visible
Apply paint with lighter, even strokes. Consider using a higher quality brush or roller. Ensure paint is not applied too thickly.
Paint is too thick or thin
Stir the paint well. If still too thick, a very small amount of clean water can be added sparingly (check manufacturer recommendations if available), but avoid over-thinning as it can affect coverage and finish.
Colour appears different once dry
Colours can sometimes look different on the wall compared to the swatch. This is normal. Ensure the surface is dry and a primer was used if necessary. Test a small area first.
