Product Information

Full details

The Johnstone's Iced Petal Matt Emulsion Tester Pot is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to trial a sophisticated, cream-toned aesthetic on their interior walls and ceilings before committing to a full-scale renovation. This 75ml tester offers a rich, non-reflective matte finish that is highly durable and excellent at disguising minor surface imperfections, though users should note that the small volume is strictly intended for sampling purposes rather than covering entire wall sections.

FAQs

How large an area can I paint with one 75ml tester?

The tester is designed for a sample patch of approximately 30cm by 30cm.

Is this paint suitable for exterior walls?

No, this is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings.

Does this paint require a primer?

For a small sample patch on existing interior walls, a primer is usually not necessary, but ensure the wall is clean and dry.

Can I use this for touch-ups?

While it can be used for very minor touch-ups, it is primarily intended for sampling color.

How long does it take to dry?

The quick-drying formula typically allows for drying to the touch within a short period, depending on ambient room temperature and humidity.

Troubleshooting

Paint color looks different than expected

Colors often vary by light source. View the sample at different times of the day to see how the cream tone interacts with your specific room lighting.

Paint is streaky during application

Ensure the surface is dry and free of contaminants. Use a high-quality brush or mini-roller and apply an even, thin coat.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ideal for testing colors without high cost or waste
  • Sophisticated, modern matte finish
  • Easy to apply with quick drying times
  • Helps hide minor wall imperfections
  • Low-odour formula is user-friendly

Cons

  • Small 75ml volume is not suitable for full-wall painting
  • Limited color range compared to larger tins
  • Requires proper surface preparation for accurate color representation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure an accurate test, clean the wall surface of dust and oils before applying the sample. Shake or stir the 75ml pot thoroughly before use to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed. The paint is compatible with standard wall and ceiling substrates. After testing, allow the sample to dry fully to see the true final color. If you are satisfied with the result, note the product name for your full-room purchase. Keep the pot tightly sealed if you need to perform touch-ups or comparison tests over several days.
