Important

This sample is to help determine colour choice only & does not represent any other attributes of the products we sell.

Many factors affect the appearance of a painted surface, including but not limited to, lighting, sheen level, method of application, batches variances, number of coats, substrate condition, etc.

Only continue to purchase a product from ourselves in this colour if you are completely happy with the results.

This colour sample only provides an approximate representation of the colour & the colour and sheen will differ in the actual product.

How to Use

For best results apply to the substrate to be painted in an inconspicuous area & view in an environment the painted surface will remain in.

Shake or well before using.

Apply with brush or roller suitable for water based paints.

Ensure air & surface temperature are between 10°C & 32°C & humidity is less than 85% during application & cure of the product.
