Questions & Answers
How do I use Eggshell Varnish?
After opening the can, stir the varnish carefully so that the pigments are evenly distributed. Then pour some of the varnish into a paint tray. Now apply the varnish evenly and not too thickly with a brush or paint roller. For large surfaces such as wooden ceilings or garden sheds, you can also use a paint sprayer. Thin the varnish with max. 10% water.
Let the varnish dry for about 4 hours or overnight. Then apply a second coat of paint. We recommend that you apply two coats, even if the varnish covers the first time. This way the paint layer will be thicker and last longer!
For surfaces such as floor tiles that need to be cleaned often, you should also seal the varnish. Use To Seal - MissPompadour Topcoat forthis . After a few hours, you can carefully walk on the painted surfaces again. After approx. 14 days, the varnish is completely hardened.
Tip: Wrap the paint tray, paint brush and Rollers in cling film while the paint is drying. Then everything stays moist until the second coat.
When do I need to prime or seal varnish?
In most cases, you can achieve a perfect result with MissPompadour Red with Merlot as an Eggshell Varnish alone - without priming or sealing. Old paints can usually be painted over without sanding if the old layers of paint are still sufficiently stable.
Sometimes, however, priming is necessary. To Bond & Block- MissPompadour primer is perfect for many surfaces. Prime stained, discoloured wood or wood with many knotholes with it to create an even base for the Eggshell Varnish. It acts as a stainblock to protect against bleeding wood.
If you want to work on very smooth surfaces made of glass, tiles or plastic, we recommend precoating with To Bond & Block to make your paint stick better.
You should also prime metal paintsif the metal is unpainted or the varnish has flaked off. If the metal is raw iron or rusty, use a rust-proofing primer before priming.
If you want to paint silicone joints in the bathroom or kitchen, prime them first with To Seal Silicone - MissPompadour Silicone Sealer, otherwise the paint will not adhere to silicone. The varnish can then adhere well to a prepared surface.
You should finish the painting of very hard-wearing surfaces such as floors, steps, handrails or similar with our To Seal - MissPompadour Topcoat
What tools do I need to apply the varnish?
Of course, you need the right tools for a good work result. That's why we've put together a selection of high-quality tools for you. From masking tape with natural rubber to our environmentally friendly paint trays without any plastic to the paint roller and our pink MissPompadour paint brushes - we have everything you need to make your painting projects easy. :)
