The Farrow & Ball Drop Cloth Modern Emulsion Paint is designed for interior walls and ceilings, offering an extremely durable and washable finish. Its key benefit lies in its resistance to scuffs and mould, making it ideal for high-traffic or moisture-prone areas like kitchens and bathrooms. A potential consideration is that it is a water-based paint with a matt finish.

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned, dry, and free from dust or grease before application. Verify that an appropriate primer was used, especially on new or unpainted surfaces.
Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before use and that two even coats were applied. Check for any missed spots or thin areas and apply a touch-up coat if necessary, ensuring consistent application technique.
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. For tougher marks, a slightly more vigorous (but still gentle) rub with a damp cloth may be needed. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing pads that could damage the finish.
While the paint is mould-resistant, persistent mould issues may indicate underlying dampness problems. Address any sources of excess moisture or poor ventilation in the room before repainting.
Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. Fill any cracks or imperfections with a suitable filler. For previously painted surfaces, lightly sand them to create a key. Apply an appropriate primer, such as Farrow & Ball's Wall & Ceiling Primer & Undercoat, for best results, especially on new plaster or porous surfaces.
Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a brush or roller, typically requiring two coats for even coverage. Allow adequate drying time between coats, as recommended on the product tin, especially in humid conditions. Avoid painting in excessively damp or cold environments.
Compatibility: This Modern Emulsion is suitable for interior walls and ceilings. It is compatible with most standard interior wall preparation materials. Always test in an inconspicuous area if unsure.
Care: To clean, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent if necessary. For stubborn marks, a slightly stiffer brush may be used gently. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which can damage the matt finish.
