Product Information

Full details

Johnstone's Wall & Ceiling Soft Sheen paint is an ideal choice for homeowners and professionals seeking a sophisticated, contemporary look for their interior spaces. This durable, mid-sheen emulsion offers a smooth, velvety finish that is both practical for high-traffic areas and easy to clean. While it excels in durability and aesthetic appeal, users should ensure proper surface preparation to achieve the best results, as the sheen level may highlight significant wall imperfections compared to a flat matt finish.

FAQs

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While Johnstone's Soft Sheen is durable and wipeable, ensure the bathroom has adequate ventilation to prevent moisture damage over time.

How many coats are typically needed?

Usually, two coats provide the best coverage and color depth, especially when covering a contrasting shade.

Is this paint suitable for ceilings?

Yes, this product is specifically formulated for both walls and ceilings.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Because this is a water-based emulsion, you can clean your brushes and rollers easily with warm, soapy water.

What is the difference between Soft Sheen and Silk?

Soft Sheen provides a more subtle, contemporary finish compared to the higher light-reflecting properties of Silk.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush marks or roller streaks

Ensure you are using a quality tool and maintain a 'wet edge' while painting to allow the paint to level correctly.

Paint finish looks uneven or patchy

Apply a second coat once the first is fully touch dry, ensuring even pressure is applied during the application.

Surface imperfections are too visible

Consider filling and sanding the wall surface before applying a base coat to smooth out the area.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, modern velvety finish
  • Highly durable and easy to wipe clean
  • Fast drying time for efficient project turnaround
  • Superior coverage rates per litre
  • Versatile for use on both walls and ceilings

  • May highlight surface imperfections more than matt paint
  • Not suitable for areas requiring high-gloss reflection
  • Restricted delivery options in certain geographical regions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before painting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or loose material. If painting over a dark color, a primer may be required to ensure the true color depth of the Soft Sheen is achieved. When applying, use a brush for edging and a roller for larger areas to maintain a consistent finish. Clean brushes and rollers with water immediately after use. Store the paint container in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the emulsion from drying out or degrading between projects.
