Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a professional finish, prepare your surfaces by cleaning them thoroughly to remove dust, grease, or previous loose paint. Always sand surfaces lightly to create a "key" for the paint to grip. We strongly recommend applying a suitable primer before using the Mylands Grays Inn 167 to even out the surface absorption and improve overall adhesion. Apply in thin, even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between layers. Once fully cured, the washable nature of this paint allows you to wipe it down with a damp cloth if necessary to maintain its appearance.
