Johnstone's Feature Colours Walls & Ceilings Empire Jewel Matt Paint - Green

This paint is designed for interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, previously painted surfaces, and suitable wallpapers.

Priming is recommended for new plaster, stained surfaces, or to ensure adhesion on glossy finishes. It also helps achieve a more uniform colour.

Usually, two coats are recommended for best coverage and colour depth, especially for feature walls. However, this can vary depending on the surface and the colour being covered.

Clean brushes, rollers, and other equipment immediately after use with water.

While it provides a durable finish, this matt emulsion is best suited for living areas, dining rooms, and bedrooms. For high-moisture areas like kitchens and bathrooms, a specialist paint with higher washability and moisture resistance may be more appropriate.

For light marks, gently wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this can damage the matt finish.

Coverage can vary, but typically Johnstone's Matt Emulsions cover approximately 10-12 square meters per litre per coat. Always refer to the specific product packaging for precise coverage details.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared and primed if necessary. Stir the paint thoroughly and apply in thin, even coats, avoiding over-brushing.

This can occur if paint is applied too thickly or unevenly, or if the surface was not smooth. Ensure consistent application and consider a second coat if needed.

Lighting conditions significantly affect paint colour perception. Allow the paint to dry completely as the final colour will be apparent then. Consider painting a small test patch.

Drying times are dependent on temperature and humidity. Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid painting in very cold or damp conditions.
