Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting your project, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or flaking paint. If applying to bare wood or metal, a high-quality primer is essential to ensure longevity and even color distribution. Use a quality synthetic brush or a short-pile roller for the smoothest application. To care for your finished surfaces, allow the paint to cure fully according to the instructions on the tin before cleaning. When cleaning, use a damp, soft cloth with a mild detergent; avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners which can dull the eggshell sheen over time.
