FAQs
Can I use this paint outdoors?
No, this specific product is formulated exclusively for interior use.
Is this paint safe for children's furniture?
The plant-based, water-based formula is generally safer than traditional solvent-based paints, but always allow the product to fully cure before use.
How many coats do I need?
Two coats are generally recommended for full coverage and to achieve the optimal durability of the satin finish.
Is the white finish a pure white?
No, this is a subtle green-toned off-white, providing a softer, more airy quality than a stark, clinical white.
How do I clean my brushes after use?
As this is a water-based paint, brushes can be cleaned easily with warm, soapy water immediately after application.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky upon application.
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.
Poor adhesion to surface.
Verify the surface was properly sanded and cleaned of oils or dust prior to painting; consider using a dedicated primer.
Finish is too shiny or dull.
The 40% sheen is fixed. Ensure even application pressure and thickness to maintain a consistent finish across the entire surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of grease or loose debris. For best results on bare wood or metal, use a compatible primer. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure the plant-based pigments are well-distributed. Apply at temperatures above 10 degrees Celsius for optimal curing. Once dried, the paint is washable; simply use a soft cloth with mild, soapy water for regular cleaning. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners or chemicals that may degrade the satin finish over time.
