FAQs

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

Johnstone's Washable Matt Emulsion Paint is formulated for interior walls and ceilings.

How do I clean painted surfaces?

Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive cleaner can be used cautiously. Always clean spills promptly.

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms?

While its washable nature makes it suitable for many rooms where cleaning is required, for very high humidity areas like bathrooms, specialized moisture-resistant paints are generally recommended for optimal long-term performance against mould and mildew.

What is the typical drying time?

This paint features a rapid drying time, though exact times can vary based on environmental conditions like temperature and humidity.

Does this paint have a strong smell?

It offers a low-odour application, making the painting process more comfortable.

How many coats are usually required?

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage, durability, and colour depth. However, this can vary based on the original surface colour and desired finish.

How much area does 2.5L cover?

Info needed: [Please refer to the product label or technical data sheet for specific coverage rates, which usually state square meters per litre. This will help you calculate how much paint is needed based on your room's dimensions.]

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or visible brush/roller marks

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (smooth, clean, dry). Apply paint evenly, avoiding over-spreading. Use a high-quality roller or brush and maintain a wet edge to prevent lap marks. Apply thin, even coats.

Paint not drying within expected time

Check room temperature and humidity; paint dries slower in cold or damp conditions. Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not apply excessively thick coats, as this prolongs drying time.

Marks not wiping clean easily

For best results, clean marks and spills as soon as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth with plain water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals or scrubbing vigorously, as this can damage the paint's integrity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Easy Maintenance: The wipe-clean feature makes it ideal for high-traffic areas and homes with children or pets.
Long-Lasting Finish: Its durable formulation helps the paint stand up to daily wear and tear.
Aesthetic Appeal: Delivers a modern, smooth matt finish that retains its colour and avoids unsightly shine.
Comfortable Application: Low odour and rapid drying contribute to a more enjoyable and efficient painting project.

Cons

Surface Preparation Critical: Like all paints, achieving the best results requires diligent cleaning, drying, and smoothing of the surface prior to application.
Not for Extreme Humidity: While washable, for very high humidity environments such as bathrooms, specialized moisture-resistant paints are generally recommended for optimal performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

Preparation: Ensure the surface (walls or ceilings) is clean, dry, and free from loose material, dust, or grease. Fill any cracks or imperfections and sand smooth. For previously painted surfaces, ensure they are sound and clean.
Stirring: Thoroughly stir the paint before and during use to ensure colour consistency and even application.
Application: Apply with a good quality brush or roller. For best coverage and durability, two coats are generally recommended. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Compatibility

This paint is designed for use on interior walls and ceilings.

Care

Cleaning: To clean painted surfaces, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, as this can damage the matt finish. Address spills and marks promptly for easiest removal.
