Johnstone's Walls & Ceilings Matt Emulsion Paint - Green - 2.5L

It provides a smooth, non-reflective matt finish, ideal for creating a sophisticated and modern look on interior walls and ceilings.

While it's a durable matt emulsion, it's best suited for general interior walls and ceilings. For high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens, a specific vinyl silk or kitchen & bathroom paint formulation is generally recommended for better moisture resistance.

Coverage varies depending on the surface porosity and application method, but typically a 2.5L tin of Johnstone's Vinyl Matt Emulsion offers excellent coverage, often around 10-12 square meters per litre. Always check the product tin for specific coverage details.

It is recommended to lightly sand glossy surfaces and apply a suitable primer before applying this matt emulsion to ensure good adhesion. Thorough surface preparation is key for a lasting finish.

All application tools should be cleaned immediately after use with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.

The paint is quick-drying. Typically, it is touch dry in 1-2 hours, and recoatable after 2-4 hours, depending on environmental conditions like temperature and humidity.

Johnstone's Vinyl Matt Emulsion is formulated for low odor, making it more pleasant to use in indoor environments.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and free from dust. Stir the paint thoroughly. Apply using even, overlapping strokes, and ensure consistent application thickness. If necessary, apply a second coat after the first has fully dried.

Drying times can be affected by temperature and humidity. Ensure the room is adequately ventilated but avoid drafts. If conditions are very cold or humid, allow extra drying time.

Use a good quality brush and apply paint with long, even strokes. Avoid overworking the paint. Feather the edges of your brush strokes to blend them seamlessly. Ensure you are using the correct application technique for a matt emulsion.

Matt emulsions often require two coats for full color depth and opacity, especially when changing from a dark to a lighter shade or vice-versa. Allow the first coat to dry completely before applying a second.
