Farrow and Ball Modern Eggshell is the toughest interior finish in the Farrow & Ball range. It provides durable protection to wood, metal and concrete surfaces as well as adding beautiful colour in an eggshell finish.

Modern Eggshell is a hardwearing, mid sheen paint with a 40% sheen level. It is especially suited to staircases, floors, kitchen cabinets, interior metal and garages and workshops.

It is scuff and stain resistant, washable and wipeable, making it perfect for skirtings and areas of high traffic.

Application Instructions

How to Apply Paint to Trim by Brush:

Stir thoroughly before use.
By "trim? we mean: skirting boards, picture rails, dado rails, doors, door frames and architraves, interior window sills and window frames (providing they aren?t plastic).
Farrow & Ball paints are water borne, and unlike solvent borne paints, water borne paint is more resistant to sagging and you will achieve the best finish by painting a thicker coat.
For best results use a quality fine-tipped synthetic bristled paint brush.
Load the brush well and apply a generous first coat. Brushing first in a vertical direction then in a horizontal direction until an even coating has been applied.
Finish by 'laying off' the paint in one direction using light pressure, with the brush held at an angle of approximately 30°.
Do not “overwork” the paint or attempt to brush it out in thin even coats as you would a traditional solvent borne paint as this may create excess brush marks.
Allow to dry completely (for a minimum of 4 hours) before applying a second coat following the same technique as before.

How to Apply Paint to Trim by Roller:

Stir thoroughly before use.
By "trim? we mean: skirting boards, picture rails, dado rails, doors, door frames and architraves, interior window sills and window frames (providing they aren?t plastic).
This paint finish can also be applied using a Medium Pile Woven Polyester Roller. This will provide a good finish with minimal stippling and is a quick method of application.
However, where an optimum finish is required, we would recommend brush application using a fine-tipped, synthetic bristled brush.
