FAQs

What surfaces can Johnstone's Trade Aqua Guard Satin be used on?

It is suitable for interior and exterior use on a variety of surfaces including walls, wood, and metal, provided they are properly prepared and primed if necessary.

How long does it take to dry?

Recoating time is typically 4-6 hours, but this can vary depending on temperature and humidity. Ensure the surface is touch-dry before applying the next coat.

Is this paint washable?

Yes, once fully cured, the satin finish is washable, making it ideal for high-traffic areas where cleaning may be required.

Can I use this paint on radiators?

While it can be used on metal, specific heat-resistant paints are recommended for radiators. Check the product's technical data sheet for specific suitability.

What is the difference between satin and gloss finishes?

Satin finishes have a low sheen, offering a softer look, while gloss finishes are highly reflective with a shiny appearance.

Do I need to prime before using this paint?

Priming is recommended for bare wood and metal, and any porous or problematic surfaces to ensure optimal adhesion and finish. Always check the specific surface requirements.

How should I clean my tools after use?

Clean brushes, rollers, and other equipment with water immediately after painting.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and free from dust, grease, or moisture. Check that the correct primer was used for the substrate.

Uneven finish or brush marks are visible.

Apply the paint evenly with a quality brush or roller. Avoid overworking the paint, and maintain a wet edge to prevent lap marks. Ensure consistent application technique.

Color appears different from expected.

Ensure the surface underneath is adequately covered and not showing through. Verify that the correct paint tin has been opened and the color is indeed 'Brilliant White'.

Paint is too thick to apply smoothly.

Stir the paint thoroughly. If necessary and recommended on the product can, a small amount of clean water may be added, but avoid over-thinning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. For previously painted surfaces, a light sanding may be required. Prime bare wood and metal with an appropriate Johnstone's primer. For optimal results on porous surfaces, apply a mist coat first.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality brush or roller. Two coats are recommended for best results. Allow adequate drying time between coats, typically 4-6 hours, depending on conditions.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior and exterior use on walls, wood, and metal. Not recommended for direct application on chalky or powdery surfaces without appropriate priming.

Care: Clean application tools with water immediately after use. Once fully cured, the painted surface can be cleaned gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
