1. Prepare the Surface

• Ensure walls are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or peeling paint.

• Fill any cracks or holes with filler, then sand smooth.

• For best results, apply to properly primed surfaces.

2. Stir Thoroughly

• Stir paint well before and during use to ensure even pigment distribution.

3. Application Tools

• Apply with a high-quality synthetic brush, roller, or sprayer.

• Use a roller with a 10–15mm nap for most walls; adjust for texture as needed.

4. Apply Evenly

• Work in sections, maintaining a “wet edge” to avoid lap marks.

• Two coats are recommended for optimal colour richness and durability.

5. Drying Time

• Touch dry in 30–60 minutes.

• Recoat after 2–4 hours. (Drying times may vary depending on temperature and humidity.)

6. Clean Up

• Clean brushes, rollers, and tools immediately with warm soapy water.

• Seal container tightly when not in use.

7. Finish & Care

• The matte finish is durable, low-sheen, and washable once fully cured (approx. 7 days).

• Clean painted surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh abrasives.

• Dries to a Matte finish
