Iona White is suitable for interior walls, ceilings, and furniture. For furniture, an additional protective wax or varnish may be applied after the paint has fully cured.
Yes, for the best results and true colour representation, it is recommended to use the Craig & Rose 1829 White Undercoat. This ensures the integrity of the chalky matt finish.
The paint offers a wipeable finish. Use a soft, damp cloth to gently clean away marks. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Two coats are generally recommended to achieve the best depth of colour and coverage. However, this can vary depending on the surface and the original colour.
While the finish is wipeable, it is best suited for areas where moisture levels are not excessively high. For high-moisture environments, a more durable, moisture-resistant paint may be a better choice.
Drying times can vary. Always refer to the specific instructions on the paint can, but generally, allow at least 2-4 hours between coats.
While custom mixing is possible, it may affect the integrity of the chalky matt finish and the colour depth. It is best to use colours as intended or consult with the manufacturer before mixing.
Ensure the surface was properly prepared and that the paint was stirred thoroughly. Apply in consistent, even strokes, working in manageable sections. Ensure you are using the recommended undercoat.
This can occur if the recommended undercoat was not used or if the base colour was significantly different. Test a small, inconspicuous area first. Colours can also appear different in varying light conditions.
Ensure the paint is at room temperature. If the paint is too thick, a very small amount of water may be added, but follow manufacturer guidelines carefully to avoid compromising the finish.
Preparation is key for achieving the best results with Craig & Rose 1829 Chalky Matt Emulsion. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint.
Compatibility: For optimal colour fidelity and performance, it is recommended to use the 1829 White Undercoat. This ensures the true shade of Iona White is achieved and provides a good base for the emulsion. The paint is designed for interior use on walls, ceilings, and furniture.
Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply evenly with a good quality brush or roller. Two coats are typically recommended for best coverage and depth of colour. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per the product instructions.
Care: The durable, chalky finish can be wiped down with a damp cloth to remove light marks. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which may damage the delicate finish.
