Johnstone's Kitchen Matt Emulsion Paint 2.5L - Vintage Duck Egg

Info needed: Please refer to the product packaging for specific coverage rates. Typically, a 2.5L tin of emulsion paint may cover approximately 25-30 square meters per coat, depending on the surface porosity and application method.

While some colours may provide good coverage in one coat, for optimal durability, grease resistance, and colour depth, we generally recommend applying two coats. More coats may be needed if painting over a significantly darker colour.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and free from loose paint or dust. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to provide a 'key' for the paint. A suitable primer may be required for challenging surfaces.

Apply paint evenly without overspreading. Use a high-quality roller and maintain a wet edge. Ensure proper drying time between coats and apply consistent pressure. Avoid painting in direct sunlight or overly warm conditions.

Ensure adequate ventilation during and after painting. Keep windows and doors open to allow fresh air circulation. The odour should dissipate completely within a few days.

This paint often requires two coats for optimal colour and protection. Apply a second coat after the first has fully dried. For significant colour changes, a third coat or a tinted primer may be beneficial.
