Frequently Asked Questions
Here youโll find guidance on ordering, using, and caring for your SatinHaus paints. We combine heritage, expertise, and approachable advice to help every project look its very best.
Can I return my paint if I change my mind?
All SatinHaus paint is made to order to ensure the highest quality for your project. This means we cannot accept returns for change of mind.
If your paint arrives damaged, faulty, or not as described, weโll resolve the issue promptly.
Why do colours look different in real life than on my screen?
Screen displays, lighting, and surface texture can slightly affect how colours appear. To be certain of your choice, we recommend ordering sample cards before starting your full project.
Our colour sample cards are handpainted using our exact paint and finish, so you can see the true look, texture, and depth of the colour. This ensures you get the most accurate representation before committing to a full project.
Is SatinHaus paint safe for children or pets?
While no paint is completely risk-free, our products are formulated to be low-odour and low-VOC, making them safer to use in kitchens, furniture, and family spaces. Always follow the safety and application instructions on the tin and website, and keep paint out of reach of children and pets during use and drying.
How should I store my paint?
To keep your paint in perfect condition:
Ensure lids are tightly sealed
Store at around 5ยฐC
Keep away from frost and heat sources like underfloor heating.
How long will delivery take?
If your order has been placed choosing โNext Day Deliveryโ before 12:00pm on a working day, this will typically ship the same working day. Weekend or Bank Holiday orders are processed on the next working day. Please also see other delivery options.
Can I rely on the quality and consistency of SatinHaus paint?
Yes! Our paints are carefully formulated for professional-looking results. Although slight batch variations may occur, we uphold consistent quality standards throughout production.

How much paint do I need?
Coverage with SatinHaus paint is typically 13โ15 mยฒ per litre, depending on:
Your method of application (brush, roller)
The surface texture
The porosity of the furniture or kitchen surface
We offer two convenient tin sizes:
750ml โ perfect for small furniture pieces, touch-ups, or a few cabinet doors
2.5L โ suitable for larger furniture projects or multiple cabinet doors; for a full kitchen, make sure you measure it out, as you may need more than one tin depending on the number of units and coats required
Tip: Measure your surfaces carefully and consider how many coats youโll need. Ordering a small sample card/750ml tin first is always a great way to check coverage and colour.
