Tikkurila Nova 2 Flat Matt Wall & Ceiling Paint 10L

A flat matt finish for walls and ceilings

Tikkurila Nova 2 is a high-solids trade emulsion with a listed 2% sheen, drying to a full, flat matt appearance. This 10L listing is an option for suitable interior wall and ceiling projects where a low-reflection finish is the priority.

Picture a freshly decorated living room or a quiet home study, with broad, softly finished walls and a calm ceiling above. Nova 2 creates a restrained matt backdrop that lets furniture, textures and natural light take centre stage.

Why choose Nova 2?

• Flat matt appearance: a listed 2% sheen for a low-reflection finish.
• High-solids trade emulsion: developed for interior decorating projects.
• Walls and ceilings: suitable for correctly prepared new and previously painted surfaces.
• Substrate versatility: the supplied information lists concrete, plaster, filler and plasterboard.
• 10L pack: this page is for the listed 10L product, not 750ml, 2.5L or 5L options.

Where to use it

The supplied product information describes use in residential properties, new construction, schools, offices and hotels requiring a flat matt finish. Check the current technical data sheet for your precise substrate and service conditions. A matt appearance alone does not establish washability, stain resistance or suitability for direct water exposure.

Important note about White

If ordering Nova 2 in White, the existing product guidance notes that it can appear slightly off-white because of the base colour. Do not choose it on the assumption that it will match a brilliant white coating. Confirm the shade before ordering and assess a physical sample in your own light where possible.

Preparation and application

Start with a sound, clean and dry surface. Remove loose material, repair defects and remove dust. Follow current manufacturer instructions for new plaster, porous substrates, existing coatings and any primer or preparatory coat required.

Follow the technical data sheet for application tools, thinning where permitted, number of coats and suitable environmental conditions. A flat finish does not repair uneven plaster or resolve an underlying damp problem.

Planning coverage and drying

Estimate quantities using the current manufacturer's coverage figure for your substrate, allowing for texture, porosity, colour change and the full number of coats. Follow the stated drying and recoating guidance for the application conditions rather than assuming the surface is ready as soon as it feels dry.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a ceiling paint?

Nova 2 is listed for suitable interior walls and ceilings. Its flat matt appearance makes it an option where a low-sheen look is wanted.

Can it be applied to plasterboard?

Plasterboard is among the surfaces listed in the supplied information. Correct preparation and any recommended primer remain essential.

Is the White a brilliant white?

The existing product guidance says White may appear slightly off-white to a professional eye. Confirm your requirements before purchase if matching an existing white.

Does a flat finish mean scrubbable?

No. Sheen and cleaning performance are different properties. Check the current technical data and cleaning instructions before choosing paint for frequently washed surfaces.

Do the room images show the exact paint colour?

No. The AI-generated room scenes are illustrative decorating inspiration, not exact colour previews or photographs of verified Nova 2 applications.

The genuine packaging image illustrates the Nova 2 range. Packaging and base-fill markings may differ from the listed 10L option; check your selected product and current manufacturer details.
