Valspar Pro-Hide Gold Ultra Interior Self-Priming Paint is the professional’s premium selection for achieving beautiful light colors with a subtle, elegant finish. This Pastel Base tints to your desired shade and provides an Eggshell sheen – a perfect balance between flat and satin. Its Zero VOC* formula supports better indoor air quality in residential and commercial spaces.(Colorants added will increase VOC level slightly)
Please Note: This is a Pastel Base. It must be tinted at the point of purchase with colorants to create your desired light or pastel shade. It cannot be used untinted or for deep colors.
Once tinted, expect the Pro-Hide Gold Ultra promise: a smooth, uniform finish with efficient application via spray, brush, or roller. This durable formula ensures dependable hide in pastel hues, good washability, and the line’s excellent touch-up capabilities, making it ideal for walls in most living areas.
Recommended Surfaces:Properly prepared interior walls, trim, and ceilings of previously painted or bare drywall, plaster, masonry, wood, and primed metal.
Surface Preparation: Thoroughly clean the surface and allow it to dry completely. Remove any existing wallpaper and all loose or peeling paint. Scrape and sand damaged paint areas smooth. Ensure glossy surfaces are sanded dull for proper adhesion. Smoother prep leads to a better eggshell finish.
Application Instructions: Stir tinted paint thoroughly before and during application. Intermix containers of the same tinted product to ensure color uniformity. Apply only when surface, air, and product temperatures are between 50°F and 90°F (10°C – 32°C). Use a premium-quality brush, a synthetic roller cover (e.g., 3/8″ – 1/2″ nap), or an airless sprayer (Recommended: 2000 PSI, .015″ – .019″ tip). Thinning not typically required. If rolling, paint the ceiling first, then walls. Work in manageable sections, applying paint in an “N” or “W” pattern, then finish with light, even roller strokes in one direction. Some pastel colors may require multiple coats.
Clean-up & Disposal: Clean tools and spills immediately with warm, soapy water. Do not pour unused paint down the drain. Consult local authorities for proper disposal and recycling methods.
Q1: Why choose an eggshell finish when painting walls pastel colors?
Eggshell provides a soft, low sheen that complements pastel colors beautifully without being too reflective like higher glosses. It also offers better washability than flat paint, helping keep lighter pastel walls cleaner, making it a popular and practical choice for most rooms.
Q2: Does eggshell hide wall imperfections well, especially with light colors?
Eggshell is generally better at hiding minor surface imperfections (like small bumps or waves in drywall) than satin or semi-gloss finishes because it reflects less light. While not as forgiving as flat, it offers a good compromise between appearance and cleanability for typical wall conditions.
Q3: How important is it to mix ('box') paint if I buy multiple gallons of the same tinted pastel eggshell?
It’s very important, especially with tinted colors. Even with precise computer tinting, slight variations can occur between cans. Mixing the contents of same-colored cans together in a larger bucket before you start painting ensures absolute color consistency across all walls.
