This 40ml tester pot is engineered to give you a precise preview of the Crown Breatheasy Quiet Time Cream Matt finish. To get the most accurate result, apply the paint to a small, clean, and dry section of the wall where you intend to use the color. It's recommended to apply two coats for full opacity, allowing adequate drying time between coats.
Location Matters: Apply the test patch in the area where the final paint will be used. Consider how natural and artificial light will interact with the color throughout the day.
Size of Patch: Create a test patch of at least 1 square foot (approximately 30x30 cm) to get a good sense of the color's impact.
Multiple Patches: If unsure, test the color on different walls or in various lighting conditions within the same room.
Wait and Observe: Allow the paint to fully dry (check drying times on the label) before making a decision. Colors can appear different when wet.
Small Details: Beyond testing, this pot is perfect for painting very small decorative details or correcting tiny imperfections on existing cream matt walls.
Prepare the Surface: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose material. For best results, use a primer if the surface is highly porous or a significant color change is planned.
Shake the Pot: Vigorously shake the tester pot for about 30 seconds before opening to ensure the paint is well mixed.
Application: Use a small brush or a mini roller to apply a thin, even coat of paint to your desired test area.
Drying Time: Allow the first coat to dry completely before applying a second coat. Refer to the product label for specific drying times.
Surfaces: This paint is compatible with common interior wall surfaces such as plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces. Ensure surfaces are sound and properly prepared.
Primers: Can be used over appropriate water-based primers.
Cleaning Tools: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water.
Storage: Store the tester pot in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
Spills: Clean up spills immediately with a damp cloth and warm water.
