Farrow & Ball Soft Distemper is a traditional, highly breathable wall paint with a powdery, ultra-matte finish (2% sheen), specially designed for delicate decorative plasterwork on indoor ceilings and walls. The paint is crafted using high-quality pigments and requires no primer. Thanks to its breathable nature, Soft Distemper allows the plasterwork to breathe freely - ideal for delicate or salt-rich surfaces where modern paint would quickly blister.
