Beatrice LAVAL Paint St. Petersburg Blue [2.5L]

★Ashiya Store B1F Color

A paint created through a collaboration between Paris-based Beatrice LAVAL and the paint brand Argile.
This acrylic paint has a velvet matte finish.
Its low-odor, water-based formula makes it safe to use indoors.
When applied in two coats evenly over any primer color, the original color will not show through.

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

Unique yet timeless,
it is an important element in creating a space that reflects your personal style.

A beautiful color even when used on its own.
While painting all surfaces in a room is a great option,
painting just one wall as an accent is also highly recommended.
It is designed to coordinate with wallpaper.

The mystical city of water, St. Petersburg.
Create a charmingly sophisticated room with this calming blue color.

Choosing a slightly bolder color will add depth and a sense of balance to your room.
Incorporating colors you may never have used before
will unexpectedly create a much more sophisticated 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
to enjoy an even more refined space.

In addition to the 2.5L size,
smaller 0.75L and 1L sizes are also available.
Other colors are also available in a 5L size.

【Directions for Use】
・Please 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 with masking tape or similar materials.
(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 thick 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.
・Dries in approximately 2 hours. Allow at least 6 hours before applying another coat.
・Close the lid tightly after use.
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 will greatly improve the finish and durability.
Smooth surfaces such as metal, plastic, melamine boards, and existing paint layers
　→ We recommend using Mictacron (adhesion primer) to improve paint adhesion.
Porous surfaces such as wood, concrete, mortar, and gypsum board
　→ Apply a sealer to prevent unevenness and color variation.
When painting over wallpaper
　→ Smooth-surfaced wallpaper such as vinyl wallpaper does not allow paint to adhere easily, so we recommend using an adhesion primer.
　→ For cloth or paper wallpaper, and for wallpaper that has deteriorated over time, apply a sealer to stabilize the surface before painting.

Failure to prepare the surface properly may cause peeling, unevenness, and reduced durability.
To ensure a beautiful, long-lasting finish, please consider using a primer suitable for the surface being painted.
As the finish will vary depending on the condition of the surface, always perform a test application in an inconspicuous area.
