    FAQs

    Paint Questions Answered

    What is the difference between Eggshell and Emulsion?

    Emulsion is a flat matte paint with no sheen and should be used to paint your walls and ceilings.

    Eggshell has a slight sheen but is more durable, so it should be used to paint all of your trims including window frames, skirting boards, door frames and radiators.

    Eggshell can be used on walls too.  It's perfect for high traffic areas like hallways and bathrooms and can add a contrasting design element to your scheme if you want to create extra intrigue with textures especially when you use the same hue. 

    How should I test paint colours?

    Always buy sample pots before you decide on your colour palette and make your decision after you’ve painted the largest area you can. Swatch cards can be too small to provide a full picture so take the plunge and paint a wall or at least half a wall.

    If this is not an option paint a large sample on a big piece of card or lining paper. Tape it to your wall look at your sample throughout the day to see how it looks and feels when the light changes. It helps to keep it there for several days/weeks to really get the feel of your considered hue. 

    How much paint do I need?

    Coverage is dependent upon the surface being painted, but the following can be used as a guide: 

    2.5L tin of emulsion/eggshell will cover approximately 25-35 square meters (one coat)

    5L tin of emulsion/eggshell will cover approximately 50-70 square meters (one coat)

    Typically, two coats of paint will be required to give the desired finish (although this is dependent upon the thickness of application and the surface being painted).

    Should I paint my walls and ceilings the same colour?

    When you paint the ceiling out in the same colour as your walls you blur the boundaries and the room feels bigger and creates a seamless transition. If you have a white ceiling you accentuate the boundaries and quite often the lack of height in a room.  Pushing the same colour around your whole room creates the perfect backdrop for the rest of your furniture, rugs and accessories.  If you are not ready to take the full plunge into colour drenching your whole room, consider painting your ceiling in a slightly lighter tone to your walls, a white ceiling only ever looks good with white walls (if you like that kind of thing of course)!

      Why you'll love it

      From swampy hues to summery grasslands to winter forests and even the colour of the earth after a downpour these hues have all been inspired from nurturing landscapes. Blurring the lines between inside and out these stunning hues offer up a beautiful combination of colours that provide a sense of warmth, comfort and security. Carefully selected pigments crafted from minerals and resins that have been chosen for their qualities of density, durability and opacity. 

      No Fail Styling Tips

      We always recommend you paint the largest sample you can before deciding on your chosen hue. A good tip is to use a large piece of card or lining paper and tape it to your wall. Look at your sample throughout the day to see how it looks and feels when the light changes. It helps to keep it there for several days/weeks to really get the feel of your considered hue.
