FAQs

Is this paint suitable for exterior use?

No, Johnstone's Matt Emulsion Paint is designed for interior walls and ceilings only.

How many coats of paint will I need?

Typically, two coats are recommended for best results, but this can vary depending on the surface condition and colour change.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it is wipeable, for high-humidity areas like bathrooms, it's recommended to use a paint specifically designed for these conditions or to apply a suitable sealant over this emulsion.

What is the drying time for this paint?

The paint is touch dry in approximately 1-2 hours and recoatable after 2-4 hours, depending on temperature and humidity.

How do I clean my painted walls?

You can gently wipe the walls with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild detergent. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry.

Can I mix this paint with other brands?

It is not recommended to mix paints from different brands or different types (e.g., emulsion with oil-based paint) as this can affect performance and finish.

What kind of surface preparation is needed?

Surfaces should be clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose material. New plaster should be mist-coated, and previously painted surfaces should be lightly sanded if glossy.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or lumpy

Stir the paint thoroughly for several minutes. If still lumpy, strain the paint through a fine sieve.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Ensure even application by working in consistent strokes. Apply a second, thinner coat if necessary. Maintain a wet edge to avoid lap marks.

Poor coverage on a dark or stained surface

Apply a primer/undercoat first, or apply additional coats of the emulsion paint. Ensure full coverage with each coat.

Paint is not drying properly

Check room temperature and humidity. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid applying paint in very cold or damp conditions.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and old wallpaper. For best results, apply a suitable primer to bare plaster or previously painted surfaces.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply with a brush or roller, working in a consistent direction. For optimal results, apply a second coat once the first coat has dried.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls and ceilings. Not recommended for use in high-humidity areas like bathrooms or kitchens unless protected by a suitable sealant.

Care: Clean spills and marks gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners which can damage the matt finish.
