Crafted by Crown Luxurious Suede Textured Matt Emulsion

Clear the surface of the project area of any contaminants such as dust, dirt or mould, ensuring the surface is dry and smooth.

• Remove any previous paint layers that are either flaking or damaged by sanding or by using a paint stripper
• Special care needs to be taken if removing pre-1960s paint surfaces as they could possibly contain harmful levels of lead
• If using a liquid cleaning product to wipe down the surface, ensure that it dries thoroughly before applying the emulsion
• Fill in imperfections such as cracks and holes with a filler suitable for the surface
• If there is a sheen on the surface then thoroughly abrade the area to enable suitably strong adhesion
• If applying to dry plaster or porous surfaces, seal the surface with paint diluted with 40% cold water. Two coats might be needed, though this is dependant on how porous the plaster is

Always start with a test area to judge suitability and finish. For ideal results it is recommended to follow the manufacturer's instructions that are printed on the container.

• For optimum results, guarantee the paint is thoroughly mixed to ensure the pigment and the texture are thoroughly blended with the emulsion a suitable tool, such as Mako Paint Stirrer
