Why buy ChromaLight paint?2025-07-10T06:28:51+10:00

ChromaLight paints are specifically optimised for Cyclorama Video Production. They deliver exactly what a professional green cyclorama requires:

  • High durability
  • Superior chroma accuracy
  • Optimal luminance
  • Minimal spill and reflection
  • Ultra-low gloss finish
Do I need a primer before applying ChromaLight Basecoat Paint?2025-06-26T06:08:57+10:00

No primer is necessary before using Cyclorama Green Basecoat Paint.
Our Basecoat is specially formulated to function both as a primer and as a base layer.
It ensures strong adhesion and prepares the surface for the Topcoat Paint, eliminating the need for additional primers.

Can ChromaLight paint be sprayed instead of rolled?2025-06-26T06:09:13+10:00

Yes, ChromaLight paints can be applied using airless spray systems, but we recommend roller application for consistent texture and film thickness on cyclorama walls and floors.
If spraying is preferred, use equipment designed for high-viscosity water-based paints.

On which surfaces can ChromaLight paint be applied?2025-06-26T06:10:24+10:00

ChromaLight paints can be used on a variety of surfaces, including:

  • Wood
  • Metal
  • Vinyl
  • Concrete
  • Plaster
  • Previously painted surfaces (coated with water-based primers/paints, although not required if using Basecoat)
  • Silicone-free coatings
  • Plastic materials

For best results, ensure the surface is smooth and clean.

How much area does 1 gallon of paint cover?2025-06-26T06:10:39+10:00

Coverage depends on the surface condition. We recommend using the Coverage Calculator on our website for accuracy.

  • 1 Gallon Cyclorama Green Basecoat Paint covers approx. 322 sq ft / 7.9 m² per liter at 75 microns dry film thickness.
  • 1 Gallon Cyclorama Green Topcoat Paint covers approx. 215 sq ft / 5.3 m² per liter at 75 microns dry film thickness.
Why should I use Cyclorama Green Basecoat Paint?2025-06-26T06:10:54+10:00

The Basecoat Paint ensures maximum adhesion and durability for your cyclorama.

  • It acts as both a primer and a foundation for the Topcoat Paint.
  • If the Topcoat is scratched or worn, the green-colored Basecoat prevents visual inconsistencies in your production.
  • It reduces the need for frequent repainting and touch-ups.
How should brushes or rollers be selected for application?2025-06-26T06:11:12+10:00

We recommend using the ChromaLight Painter Kit, which includes all essential tools for optimal application.
If you do not have the Painter Kit:

  • Use a 9” (23-25 cm) roller brush with a 1/5” (5 mm) nap for large areas.
  • Use a 4” (10 cm) roller brush for edges and corners.
How many coats of paint should be applied?2025-06-26T06:11:30+10:00
  • On Cyclorama Green Basecoat Paint, we recommend 2 coats for optimal coverage.
  • On alternative primers or non-prepared surfaces (not common), 3 coatsmay be required.
  • Follow with 2 coats of Cyclorama Green Topcoat Paint for the best finish.
How long should we wait before using the Cyclorama after painting?2025-06-26T06:11:44+10:00

Allow the paint to dry for at least 6 hours after the final coat, depending on temperature and humidity conditions. Ensure the paint is fully cured before starting production.

Can I paint directly on the floor and remove it later?2025-06-26T06:11:57+10:00

No. ChromaLight paint creates a permanent bond with the surface. It is not designed to be removed by cleaning or washing.
If you require a temporary or portable floor solution, we recommend purchasing vinyl flooring, applying ChromaLight paint on it, and using it as a movable cyclorama surface. This allows flexibility without compromising on chroma key quality.

How do I clean and maintain ChromaLight painted surfaces?2025-06-26T06:12:12+10:00

For regular cleaning:

  • Use a soft, damp microfiber cloth to remove dust or smudges.
  • Do not use abrasive materials, chemical solvents, or harsh cleaners, as they may damage the paint surface.
  • Avoid excessive scrubbing to preserve the matte finish and color consistency.
    For deeper cleaning:
  • Dampen the cloth with clean water only—avoid detergents or alcohol-based solutions.
  • Wipe gently in circular motions.
Can ChromaLight paint be touched up?2025-06-26T06:12:30+10:00

Yes. Minor scratches or damaged areas can be easily touched up:

  • Clean the area first.
  • Lightly sand the edges if necessary.
  • Reapply the same Topcoat Paint and blend the edges for a seamless result.
    For larger areas, a full re-coat may be more effective.
Do you offer Blue Chroma Key Paint?2025-06-26T06:12:43+10:00

Yes. Our Cyclorama Blue Paint Series is launching soon.
It is designed for professional blue screen applications with high chroma accuracy and optimal luminance.

Do you offer White Paint for studios?2025-07-10T06:27:44+10:00

Yes. Our Studio White Paint is coming soon.
It is developed for photography and video studios requiring neutral color balance and optimised light diffusion.

Can ChromaLight products be delivered internationally?2025-07-10T06:27:58+10:00

Yes. We offer worldwide delivery.
Whenever possible, we direct orders to our authorised resellers and distributors for faster service and local support.
If there’s no reseller in your country, we can ship directly from our warehouses to any location worldwide.
