Product Information

Full details

Johnstone's Wall & Ceiling Matt Emulsion is designed for both DIY enthusiasts and professional painters looking to achieve a modern, sophisticated look on interior surfaces. This high-quality paint offers excellent coverage and a smooth, creamy texture that helps hide minor wall imperfections, making it an ideal choice for refreshing living rooms, bedrooms, or ceilings. While it is highly durable and wipeable, users should ensure the surface is properly prepared to achieve the best results, as the matte finish is less forgiving of deep texture than higher-sheen alternatives.

FAQs

Can I use this paint in a kitchen or bathroom?

This emulsion is intended for general wall and ceiling use; however, for high-humidity areas, we recommend paints specifically formulated with anti-mould properties.

How many coats do I need?

While the paint has excellent coverage, two coats are generally recommended to achieve a uniform, professional finish.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is quick-drying, typically being touch-dry within a few hours, though drying times can vary based on room temperature and humidity.

Is this paint wipeable?

Yes, it is designed to be wipeable for easy maintenance in standard household conditions.

Can I use this on wood or metal?

No, this is specifically formulated for walls and ceilings. Use dedicated wood or metal paints for those surfaces.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Because it is a standard emulsion paint, brushes and rollers can generally be cleaned with warm, soapy water immediately after use.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks after drying

Ensure you are using a good quality roller and that you are not stretching the paint too thin. Keep a 'wet edge' while painting.

Paint is peeling or flaking

This is usually caused by painting over loose, dusty, or greasy surfaces. Scrape away loose material, clean the surface, and prime before re-applying.

Inconsistent finish or patchy color

Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure pigments are mixed, and ensure the surface was properly primed, especially if painting over a darker color.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Minimizes wall imperfections for a smooth appearance
  • Easy to apply due to the creamy consistency
  • Dries quickly for faster project completion
  • Wipeable finish for easy maintenance

Cons

  • Matte finish may show scuffs more easily than higher-sheen paints
  • Requires proper surface preparation for long-term adhesion
  • Not intended for high-moisture areas like full-tiled bathroom zones

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying the paint, ensure that all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If the wall is newly plastered, ensure it is completely dry and primed before application. When painting, keep the room ventilated and apply in even strokes. To care for your painted walls, allow the paint to fully cure—which usually takes a few days—before attempting to wipe it. For cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners to preserve the integrity of the matte finish. Store the tin in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out between uses.
