Johnstone's My Colour Paint - Brown

This paint is ideal for interior walls and ceilings, particularly in high-traffic areas such as family rooms, hallways, and kitchens, due to its durable matt finish.

'Intense Colour Technology' refers to the use of high-quality pigments that ensure the paint delivers rich, deep, and vibrant colours that remain beautiful and true over time.

As a durable matt paint, it is designed to be easily cleaned. You can gently wipe marks with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing to maintain the finish.

For best results and full colour depth, two coats are usually recommended. However, coverage can vary depending on the surface porosity and original colour.

While it is durable, for high-moisture areas like shower enclosures or direct splash zones in bathrooms, a paint specifically formulated for high humidity and moisture resistance would generally be more appropriate. It is suitable for bathroom walls in areas with less direct moisture exposure.

The 60-30-10 principle is a design rule that suggests using a dominant colour for 60% of a space (e.g., main wall colour), a secondary colour for 30% (e.g., accent wall, furniture), and an accent colour for 10% (e.g., decor items, artwork) to create a balanced and harmonious scheme.

Ensure surfaces are properly prepared (clean, smooth, primed). Apply paint evenly using appropriate tools (good quality brush/roller) and avoid overworking the paint. Maintain a 'wet edge' to prevent lap marks. Ensure consistent drying conditions.

Verify that the surface was properly primed, especially if painting over a dark or porous surface. Apply two full, even coats, allowing adequate drying time between each. Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before and during application to distribute pigments evenly.

This usually indicates poor adhesion. Ensure the surface was completely clean, dry, and free of loose material before painting. For glossy or previously unprepared surfaces, proper sanding and/or priming is essential to create a good bonding surface.
