FAQs

What surfaces can Johnstone's Garage Floor Paint be used on?

It is ideal for concrete garage floors and suitable for properly prepared tiles, brickwork, wood, cement, and stone surfaces.

What kind of finish does this paint provide?

The paint offers a durable semi-gloss finish.

Is this paint resistant to common garage spills?

Yes, it is designed to resist oil and grease spills.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Drying times can vary based on conditions, but typically it's touch dry in a few hours and recoatable after several hours. Full curing before heavy use takes around 7 days.

Can I use this paint on my internal household floors?

While versatile, it is specifically formulated for garage floors. For interior household floors, a dedicated interior floor paint might be more suitable depending on the specific requirements and traffic.

Do I need to prepare my concrete floor before painting?

Yes, thorough preparation is crucial. This includes cleaning, degreasing, and often etching or grinding the concrete to ensure good adhesion.

Are there any restrictions on where this product can be delivered?

Yes, due to geographical limitations, delivery is unavailable to the Isle of Wight, Isle of Man, and Ireland.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well or peeling

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and properly prepared (etched if necessary for concrete). Check for moisture in the substrate. Ensure the correct primer was used if required for the surface type.

Uneven or streaky finish

Ensure paint was stirred thoroughly before and during application. Apply paint evenly with consistent roller or brush strokes. Avoid applying too thickly or too thinly. Ensure adequate lighting to see missed spots.

Paint remains tacky after drying

This can occur in humid conditions or if applied too thickly. Ensure adequate ventilation. Allow more drying time. In persistent cases, you may need to lightly abrade the surface and reapply a thin coat.

Bubbling during application

This can be caused by applying paint to a damp surface or by trapped air. Ensure the surface is completely dry. Apply paint with smoother, even strokes. Ensure good ventilation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation is Key:

  1. Cleaning: Ensure the surface is thoroughly clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, oil, and any loose debris. Use a suitable degreaser for stubborn stains.
  2. Etching (Concrete): For bare concrete, acid etching or mechanical grinding may be necessary to create a profile for the paint to adhere to. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely.
  3. Priming: For non-porous surfaces like tiles or previously painted surfaces, a suitable primer may be required. Always test compatibility in an inconspicuous area.

Application:

  • Apply using a brush, roller, or sprayer.
  • Stir the paint thoroughly before and during application.
  • Apply in a well-ventilated area.
  • Two coats are generally recommended for best results, allowing adequate drying time between coats.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for concrete, properly prepared tiles, brickwork, wood, cement, and stone.
  • Not recommended for surfaces subject to constant water immersion or very heavy vehicle traffic without professional advice.

Care:

  • Clean spills immediately with a damp cloth.
  • For general cleaning, use mild detergent and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Allow the paint to cure fully (typically 7 days) before exposing to heavy use or vehicle traffic.
