Product Information

Full details

Designed for homeowners looking to brighten their living spaces, Johnstone's Silk Emulsion Paint provides a durable, high-sheen finish that reflects light to make rooms appear more spacious. While this paint is perfect for high-traffic areas due to its scrub-resistant properties, users should be aware that the high-sheen finish can highlight imperfections in wall surfaces, meaning thorough preparation is essential before application.

Troubleshooting

Paint shows brush strokes or roller marks.

Ensure you are using a quality applicator and avoid overworking the paint once it begins to set.

Imperfections on the wall are very visible.

The high sheen finish highlights surface flaws; sand the wall thoroughly and use filler before applying a base coat.

Paint is not covering in one coat.

High sheen paints may require two coats for full opacity, especially if painting over a significantly different colour.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before you begin, ensure your surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over dark colours or porous surfaces, apply a suitable primer first. Use a high-quality roller for large flat areas and a synthetic brush for corners and edges to maintain the smooth finish. After painting, allow the surface to cure fully before attempting any cleaning. For routine care, use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away marks, taking advantage of the paint's wipeable nature to maintain a fresh appearance over time.
