Questions, answered
What's the difference between Mineral White and Quiet White?
Mineral White is a silicate (mineral) paint: preservative-free, extremely breathable, and the right choice for bathrooms, kitchens, cellars and older solid-walled homes. Quiet White is a plant-oil matt emulsion for bedrooms, living rooms, hallways and everywhere that stays dry. Damp or mould-prone room? Mineral White. Have an isothiazolinone allergy? Mineral White. Otherwise both give a beautiful natural matt.
Is this paint really natural?
Yes, and we show our working. Mineral White is over 96% natural raw materials; Quiet White is 99% renewable and mineral. We publish the full ingredient list on every tin and every product page, including the small synthetic parts, because a 'natural' paint that hides its recipe isn't one.
How many coats, and how much do I need?
Usually two coats. Measure your walls in m², subtract big windows and doors, divide by the coverage figure on each paint, then double it for two coats. Between sizes? Size up.
Is it low odour and safe around children and pets?
Very low odour: both are solvent-free with barely any VOC and carry the French A+ emissions rating. You may notice a mild natural scent from the raw materials while it dries. As with any paint, keep tins out of reach, and ventilate while painting and drying.
Where is it made, and are you the manufacturer?
Soil & Sky is a British brand. Our paints are made for us in Germany by a leading natural paint specialist. We're the brand and your UK supplier, and we publish exactly what's in every tin.
