FAQ's
General Product Questions
Where can we use High Contrast Projector Screen Paint?
The High Contrast Projector Screen Paint is ideally used for watching movies, gaming, and for home cinema screens or high contrast projection.
Application & Usage
What lighting is recommended for use with High Contrast Projector Screen Paint?
We recommend low ambient lighting for the best results.
Can High Contrast Projector Screen Paint be used for blended projections?
Yes, High Contrast Projector Screen Paint is suitable for blended and multi-projector setups. Its advanced formulation delivers uniform brightness, accurate colour reproduction, and consistent light diffusion, allowing multiple projected images to merge seamlessly on a single surface without visible seams. This makes it ideal for projection mapping, large-scale presentations, immersive installations, and theatre environments, while also eliminating the need for bulky or expensive physical screens.
Surface Prep & Priming
What surfaces can High Contrast Projector Screen Paint be applied to?
High Contrast Projector Screen Paint is designed for smooth surfaces, including wood, plaster, wallboards, metal, concrete, and other composite materials. Also, it can be applied to fabrics and is suitable for painting or refurbishing old screens, but not suitable for roll-up screens (Indoor use only).
Is priming required before the application process of High Contrast Projector Screen Paint?
Yes, we recommend applying High Contrast Projector Screen Paint to a previously primed or painted surface. However, if the surface is untreated or bare, then just apply one coat of White Primer before painting.
Functionality & Performance
What does ‘polarity preserving’ mean for High Contrast Projector Screen Paint?
Polarity preserving refers to the paint’s ability to maintain the original polarisation of light projected from a 3D projector. In 3D projection, two slightly different images are polarised differently and viewed through 3D glasses, allowing each eye to see a separate image and create depth perception. If the projection surface alters this polarity, the 3D effect can be reduced or lost. High Contrast Projector Screen Paint preserves the projected light’s original polarisation, ensuring accurate depth, clarity, and a fully immersive 3D viewing experience.
Is High Contrast Projector Screen Paint Suitable for Both 2D and 3D Projectors?
Yes, High Contrast Projector Screen Paint is fully compatible with both 2D and 3D projectors, delivering excellent image clarity and performance across formats. With 2D projection, light grey screen paint enhances contrast, sharpness, and colour depth for vivid visuals. When used with 3D projectors, it maintains the required light properties to preserve depth and image separation, ensuring a clear and immersive viewing experience when wearing 3D glasses. This makes it a versatile solution for presentations, gaming, and cinematic environments.
Safety & Environmental
Is High Contrast Projector Screen Paint safe to use?
Yes, absolutely. High Contrast Projector Screen Paint is low-VOC, solvent-free, and free from PFOA, PFOS, and isocyanates. It meets the highest environmental safety standards.

Smarter Surfaces High Contrast Projector Screen Paint is 100% isocyanate-free. Unlike some lower-quality alternatives available in the market, we do not use isocyanates in any of Smarter Surfaces products, as they pose potential health risks and require strict safety measures when handled.
What sort of personal protective equipment (PPE) is required during the application process of the paint?
Make sure to use the gloves provided in the kit while painting. Additionally, safety glasses are recommended. Lastly, you must also ensure that the room is well-ventilated during application.
Is High Contrast Projector Screen Paint flammable?
