Beatrice LAVAL Paint Boston Gray [0.75L]

★Color Used on the 1st Floor of the Ashiya Store

A paint created through a collaboration between Paris-based Beatrice LAVAL and the paint brand Argile.
This acrylic paint has a velvet matte finish.
It is low-odor and water-based, so it can be used indoors with peace of mind.
When applied in two coats evenly over any base color, the original color will not show through.

A professional-quality color created with the utmost care by Beatrice, a master of color.
While most walls in Japan are white,
this carefully selected color creates a wonderful French-inspired look.
No matter which color you choose,
it will be easy to incorporate into your space and expand the possibilities for your interior.

It is designed to coordinate with separately sold wallpaper.
Unique yet timeless,
it is an important element in creating a space that reflects your personal style.

It is a beautiful color even when used on its own.
While it is a good idea to paint all surfaces in a room,
painting just one wall can create a striking accent, so we highly recommend it.

Boston, the oldest city in America.
This exquisite gray color will guide you toward a sophisticated space.

Introducing a dark color will add depth and stability to your room.
By incorporating colors you may never have used before,
you can unexpectedly create a much more luxurious interior.

Small spaces such as entryways and toilets
are particularly easy places to experiment with at home,
so be sure to combine them with wallpaper
and enjoy an even more refined space.

In addition to the 0.75L size,
we also offer a 2.5L size.
For other colors, 1L and 5L sizes are also available.

【Directions for Use】
・Prepare a brush, roller, spray gun, etc.
・Remove any dirt from the surface to be painted and allow it to dry thoroughly.
・Cover any areas you do not want to paint thoroughly with masking tape, etc. (After painting, peel the tape off slowly before the paint has completely dried.)
・Before opening the lid, shake well to mix the contents evenly. Once opened, stir the paint thoroughly from the bottom with a stick or similar tool.
・If the paint is too viscous and difficult to apply, dilute it slightly with water. For use with a spray gun, dilute with water (5–10%).
※Be careful not to dilute too much, as this may cause problems such as poor drying or discoloration.
・It will dry in about 2 hours. Allow at least 6 hours before applying another coat.
・After use, close the lid tightly. Also, wash the tools used with water and use a neutral detergent if necessary.

【About Surface Preparation】
Depending on the material being painted, proper surface preparation can greatly improve the finish and durability.
Smooth surfaces such as metal, plastic, melamine boards, and existing paint films
　→ We recommend using Mictacron (adhesion primer) to improve the paint's adhesion.
Absorbent surfaces such as wood, concrete, mortar, and gypsum board
　→ Apply a sealer to prevent unevenness and color variation.
When painting over wallpaper
　→ For smooth-surfaced wallpaper such as vinyl wallpaper, we recommend using an adhesion primer because the paint may not adhere well.
　→ For cloth or paper wallpaper, or wallpaper that has deteriorated over time, apply a sealer to stabilize the surface before painting.

Painting without proper surface preparation may cause peeling, unevenness, and reduced durability.
To achieve a beautiful and long-lasting finish, please consider using a primer suitable for the surface being painted.
Because the finish will vary depending on the condition of the surface, always perform a test application in an inconspicuous area.
