What’s the difference between Cair and Cair Fresh?
Both paints remove pollutants and have anti-molding capabilities, but the paint types each have their own unique feature. Gush Air-purifying paint, Cair, has a humidity control feature that maintains a healthy moisture level in your room. Gush Air-purifying and Stain-resistant paint, Cair Fresh lets you easily wipe off grime from your surfaces without damaging the paint coat. We recommend using the Cair for ceilings or areas with a lot of moisture, and Cair Fresh for walls and areas prone to dirt, stains and marks.
Is your full colour range available on your website?
No, our website only features 65 curated colours. If you’re looking for a colour that is not on our website, please reach out to us at hello@gush.earth.
I've just got my walls painted. The colour appears to be darker in comparison to what's shown on your website.
While we’ve done our best to represent our colours accurately online, colour presentations can vary depending on the monitor and screen settings. To help in your decision-making, we recommend ordering our sample tubs to confirm your colour choice before proceeding with your paint order. This not only shows you the exact colour, but helps you visualise how it’s going to look on your wall.
How much paint should I get?
You’ll get a good gauge using our handy Paint Calculator*. But as a general estimate, 1 litre of gush paint gets you 2 coats for a 5-6 m² surface area, approximately. *Kindly note that the calculated quantity may differ for your home, based on how many walls you’ll be painting.
Do you provide colour books?
We don’t have a colour book for our online range, but you can get the sample sheets of the colours you’re interested in. You can do so by selecting Sample Sheets under the product listing.
Is it safe to stay in the house while the painting is done?
Yes, that’s the beauty of using our odourless, toxic-free paints. It’s safe for pregnant women and children to stay as well. You can stay in another room while the painting is done, so the wet walls don’t get touched. Know the science behind this.
Is the paint safe for people with asthma or respiratory illnesses?
Yes, Gush paints are odourless and do not emit any toxic fumes. Here's how one of our customers did it!.
Do I have to use a white base first if I am painting a dark-coloured wall with a lighter colour?
We recommend applying a layer of sealer instead. Besides already being white in colour, the sealer helps your paint coat bind to the wall better and prevents cracking and peeling.
Is it advisable to strip the old paint every time I want to repaint?
We do not recommend stripping off old paint as this would worsen the wall condition. Your best bet is to get a professional plastering service to repair the wall before you repaint it.
I am looking to paint on wood surfaces. Which paint would be a better choice – Gush Cair or Gush Cair Fresh?
Currently, our paints are not ideal for wood surfaces as they are water-based with matte-finishing. When applied to wood, it might cause scratches, dirt marks or peel over time. We recommend using other oil or latex-based paints instead. If you still wish to use our paints on wood, make sure to apply a layer of sealer first to get the best result.
Can I use a sealer from another brand together with Gush Air-purifying paint?
Yes, that’s possible. But our interior paints still give the best results when paired with the Gush sealer.
What material surface can Gush Air-purifying interior paint be applied to?
Wood Application on wooden surfaces is possible, but not recommended. Our paint is unable to replicate the natural beauty of wooden surfaces due to its matte-texture finish. If you wish to paint gush on wood, do apply a layer of sealer first. Plastic Application on plastic surfaces is possible, but not recommended. If you wish to paint gush on plastic, apply a layer of sealer first to help the paint coat bind to the surface better. Metal Gush interior paints should not be applied to metal surfaces as it is a water-based, latex paint that may cause the metal surface to rust. Exterior walls It should not be used as a replacement for exterior paint. As Gush interior paints are specifically formulated for interior environments, they do not perform the same in outdoor conditions.
Do I mix need to mix water with my paints?
No, you don’t need to. Adding too much water will reduce our paints’ air-purifying effectiveness and finish. Give the paint a thorough stir before use so that the pigments are evenly mixed, and you’re good to go. If the paint is too sticky for you, you can dilute it with water, but just a little. The amount of water you add should not exceed 15% of the overall paint solution as this would severely reduce the paints’ efficacy. Only use clean water so the paint doesn’t get contaminated.
Do I need to use a sealer?
Using a sealer neutralises existing alkalis on the wall which typically causes paint to peel, discolour or crack. It also seals off excess moisture trapped within the wall, preventing mold and efflorescence growth. Sealer also makes the paint adhere to the wall better. We always recommend using sealer, especially if you face any of these situations: - Wall-related issues like stubborn marks due to stains, grease or patched-up areas - If the wall was previously painted with oil-based, emulsion paint - You’re changing the wall from a dark to light colour - This is the first paint layer being applied to a new wall - It has been five years since the wall was last painted Our interior paints gives best results when paired with the Gush sealer.
Is there a special application method to use Gush Interior paints?
Nope! Even with its air-purifying features, both Air-purifying and Gush Cair Freshs can be applied like every other paint on the market. We recommend applying two coats of paint for the best results.

It’s best to install window films after all major renovation works are completed (i.e. hacking and drilling) and before any curtains, blinds or grille installation. This period is ideal as the site needs to be clean and dust-free for the best workmanship.
How does the installation work? Do I need to prepare anything?
We use a cleaning solution to remove any stains and dirt marks before applying the films. You can wipe your windows before the installation date to reduce stubborn dust and dirt. This helps make the installation smoother.
What’s the benefit of your window films over other brands?
Let’s start with a cool fact: heat doesn’t just come from light. It comes from a thermal spectrum that includes UV and infrared heat. Our window films block out heat across a larger range of this spectrum than traditional films. What’s more, Gush window films allow for more visible light to pass through. In short, our films block more outside heat, and let more light in. If you want more details, drop us an enquiry and our sales representative will be glad to give you a better understanding.

Does the window film require special cleaning and care?
Not at all, a simple wipe with a damp microfiber cloth is good enough for cleaning. Avoid using scrubs or abrasive cleaning agents as they will damage the film. Also, close your windows when it rains, as frequent water contact may affect the films too.
