Cover Story's 038 Edgar is a classic terracotta, or burnt clay, whose warm and earthy tone comes alive with the changing lighting conditions. The full-bodied mix of red, brown and orange is easy to combine with other rich tones but it also pairs well with light, neutral shades like the soft white 037 Minna. Edgar is a flat paint: it gives the painted surface a matte, velvety smooth finish.
Cover Story’s high-quality, eco-friendly, water-based paints are safe to use indoors, as they are odorless and do not emit harmful VOCs into the indoor air. The paints are plastic-free and therefore breathable, making them also suitable for wooden surfaces.
Tips for purchasing Cover Story paints:
- One can of paint will cover a surface of 30–40 m². Count the amount of paint needed by multiplying the wall or ceiling width with its length. We recommend then doubling that, as the best result is achieved with two coats of paint.
- It is advisable to always use a sample before painting – lighting has a huge impact on how a particular shade looks in a particular space! Cover Story’s no-mess adhesive paint samples are available for purchase separately.
