Yes you can. Just apply 1 layer of Nippon Momento® Clear Coat to protect your Nippon Momento® walls, if you do.
On Laminate/Wood: If the surface of the laminate or wood is smooth, some light sanding will be required first in order to create a rough surface for better paint adhesion
For Textured Paint Series:
- Apply 2 coats of the Momento® Primer followed by your preferred Momento® Topcoat
- Apply 1-2 coats of Momento® Clear Coat for better durability
On Tiles: In order to paint on tiles, apply 1 coat of the Nippon Hycote 51WT first and then followed by the same method you would paint Momento® on your walls.
For Textured Paint Series:
- Apply 1 coat of the Nippon Hycote 51WT
- Apply 2 coats of the Momento® Primer followed by your preferred Momento® Topcoat

Textured Paint
- Paint 2 coats of Nippon Momento® Primer onto existing wall.
- Paint 1 coat of any Nippon Momento® topcoat variant of your choice (Elegant, Sparkle Pearl, Sparkle Silver or Sparkle Gold).
- Use the spatula to gently smooth over the painted surface after 10 – 15 minutes, when it is semi-dry.
Using the 3″ brush that comes with the toolkit is highly recommended as the bristles are specially designed to be neither too hard nor too soft.
- Rinse it under running water immediately after use.
- Let it dry after.
- Remove all dirt, dust, and grease from the surface.
- Be sure to remove any dust or cobwebs.
- Don’t forget when painting the kitchen and bathrooms, check around corners, air vents, ceilings, shower stall, sink, switch plates, etc.
- Mask off areas that will not be painted with a masking tape to avoid making a mess.
- Start painting from the corners to ensure a smooth painting process.
- Dip the brush and sweep it along the edges and corners.
- Start moving the brush out and using irregular criss-cross strokes.
- Work the paint in one direction (E.g: L to R or R to L) in a top-to-bottom approach.
- Use the same batch of paint for each job or structure.
- Be sure to be consistent in the amount of paint applied.
- To prevent joint lines, keep a wet edge to avoid paint from drying out.
- Don’t stop painting in the middle of a continuous wall or trim surface.
- Do not stop painting until the whole wall is completed. If you do, paint will dry and colour will intensify and darken causing joint lines.
If paint is still wet:
- Dilute the paint with some water, go over the lap marks and smudge the intensified area using a circular motion or criss-cross strokes.
If paint has dried:
- Use the leftover paint available or get a new tub of the same variant.
- Then, add paint onto areas A, B, C and D that are now lighter than the lap marks to make it even again.
Note: Red line in diagram reflects joint lines.
