These background paints are just one part of a broader system. Explore complementary interior paint options for walls, trims, and features that sit alongside projection or chroma-keyed areas. For home offices, studios, and creative spaces, other paints can add depth or definition while keeping the background professional and distraction-free.
Magnetic paints, chalkboard finishes, and low-sheen matt emulsions can all work with specialist backgrounds to deliver multi-functional wall designs. These solutions are especially useful in shared or hybrid spaces where zones need to adapt for meetings, filming, or day-to-day use without major reconfiguration.
Background Paint FAQs
Can I use background paint on a textured wall?
Background paints work best on smooth, well-prepared surfaces. Textured walls can disrupt projection clarity or create uneven colour patches in video recording. To get the best results, skim or sand the wall and apply a suitable primer before using background paint. This will ensure a consistent finish and proper performance during use.
Is a separate primer required before applying background paint?
Yes, many background paints need a specific primer or basecoat, especially when applied over bare plaster, drywall, or absorbent surfaces. Using the correct primer improves adhesion and prevents patchy drying. Refer to the technical data sheet for the paint being used, and speak with a specialist if unsure.
Can these paints be cleaned if marked or dirty?
Most background paints offer limited washability to preserve their matt or low-sheen finish. Cleaning with a soft cloth and warm water is usually safe, but avoid scrubbing or chemical cleaners. If the surface is likely to get dirty often, speak to technical support about tougher or wipeable alternatives that still meet performance requirements.
Are green screen and projector paints interchangeable?
No, they serve different purposes. Green screen paint is formulated for chroma key filming, while projector paint is designed to reflect light uniformly for clear image display. Each has a distinct pigment and surface property, so using the wrong one will affect image or video quality. Choose based on intended use.
