FAQs

Q1. What’s the most relaxing green for bedrooms?
Soft sage or muted mint promote calming interiors by reflecting natural foliage tones.

Q2. Do dark greens make rooms look smaller?
Not if balanced with light ceilings, ample lighting, or reflective décor. An accent wall in a dark green palette can even add perceived depth.

Q3. How many coats are ideal for deep greens?
Two coats ensure uniform richness; the high-opacity formula of Nippon 2-in-1 often covers in fewer passes.

Q4. Will Weatherbond PRO stop exterior colour fading?
Yes. Its UV-resistant pure-acrylic film slows chalking and maintains vibrancy even in harsh Indian summers.
