Coral Super Lavável Meditation: Dark Accent Wall Paint

Meditation is a dark option for an accent wall, with Coral's Ultra Resist Technology washable finish. See the technical specification.

An accent wall in a dark tone tends to draw more visual attention, and in some cases more physical contact, than the rest of the room, making cleaning resistance as relevant as the aesthetic effect. Meditation, within the Coral Super Lavável line, combines both, classified under item 4.5.12 of ABNT NBR 11702.

Characteristics

  • Twice as cleaning-resistant, compared to item 4.5.1 of the ABNT NBR 11702 standard (premium matte finish)
  • Repels liquids (lower effect on this more intense color)
  • Easy to clean
  • Low odor within 3 hours after application, in a ventilated room
