Johnstone's Wall & Ceiling Matt Emulsion Paint - Antique White - 2.5L

While it is durable, this paint is best suited for living rooms and bedrooms. High-moisture areas generally require specialized bathroom or kitchen paints that resist mold and water.

Johnstone's Matt Emulsion is quick-drying, typically touch-dry within a few hours, though drying times can vary depending on room temperature and humidity.

It is wipeable, meaning it handles light cleaning well. However, it is not as scrubbable as higher-sheen paints, so avoid vigorous scrubbing.

If you are painting over previously painted surfaces in good condition, a primer is usually not necessary. For bare or porous surfaces, a mist coat is recommended.

A standard 2.5L tin typically covers approximately 30 square meters per coat, depending on surface porosity and application method.

Ensure you are using a high-quality roller and maintaining a 'wet edge' while painting. Do not overwork the paint once it begins to tack.

High-opacity paints still require two coats for a uniform finish. Ensure you are using the correct pile length for your roller type.

This often occurs if the surface wasn't properly primed or if the paint was applied too thinly. Apply a second full coat to even out the finish.
