Always ensure you have enough paint for your whole project. When more than 1 tin of the same colour is needed, it is good practice to ensure batch numbers are identical or to intermix batches prior to commencing painting
Preparation
-
Ensure surfaces are in suitable condition for painting and clean, dry, free from wax, grease or penetrating substances and in sound condition. If previously painted, remove loose or flaking paint. Fill any holes/imperfections with a suitable filler

Take care on opening the tin lid – a Frenchic tin opener is recommended

Advice when choosing colours
We make every effort to match our online colour swatches to the paint but colours can vary depending on a number of factors, including screen settings. This means we cannot guarantee the paint will exactly match what you see on screen. Please order a colour chart and samples or visit your local stockists to see the colours yourself.
