Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose material. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth. For bare, new, or porous surfaces, a suitable primer or mist coat of this paint (thinned with water) is recommended.
Mixing: Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure consistent color and consistency.
Application: Apply with a good quality brush or roller. For best results, apply two even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between coats. Avoid overspreading.
Ventilation: Ensure good ventilation during application and drying.
Surfaces: This paint is designed for interior walls and ceilings.
Existing Paint: Compatible with most previously painted surfaces, provided they are clean, sound, and properly prepared.
Cleaning: Due to its washable nature, most marks and stains can be wiped away using a soft cloth or sponge dampened with mild soap and water. Gently blot or wipe the affected area. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, as this may damage the paint finish over time.
Prompt Action: For best results, clean spills and marks as soon as possible.
