FAQs

Can I use this paint on woodwork?

This paint is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings; it is not recommended for wood or metal surfaces.

Is this paint wipeable?

Yes, once fully cured, the matte finish is wipeable, allowing for gentle cleaning of light marks.

How many coats are typically needed?

While the coverage is excellent, two coats are generally recommended for the best, most uniform finish.

How long does it take to dry?

Johnstone's Matt Emulsion is designed to dry quickly, but precise times depend on room temperature and humidity levels.

Is this suitable for a bathroom?

While it is durable, this is a standard emulsion. For rooms with high moisture or steam, a dedicated kitchen or bathroom paint with moisture-resistant properties is usually preferred.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears patchy after the first coat

This is common with many emulsions; apply a second coat once the first is fully dry to achieve uniform opacity.

Visible roller marks

Ensure you are using a quality roller, avoid over-spreading the paint, and maintain a 'wet edge' while painting.

Poor adhesion on the wall

Ensure the wall was properly cleaned of dust and grease, or use a primer/mist coat if applying to new or porous plaster.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High opacity effectively covers underlying colors and marks
  • Creates a sophisticated, modern matte aesthetic
  • Easy to apply due to its creamy, smooth formula
  • Durable enough to be wiped clean for ongoing maintenance

Cons

  • Requires careful preparation of surfaces to avoid finish issues
  • Matte finishes can sometimes show scuffs more easily than high-gloss alternatives in heavy-traffic zones
  • Limited to interior use on walls and ceilings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose paint, dust, or grease. If painting over new plaster, apply a mist coat first to ensure proper adhesion. Use high-quality brushes for cutting in at edges and corners, and a medium-pile roller for walls and ceilings to maintain the texture. To keep the finish looking fresh, allow the paint to fully cure according to the recommended drying times before attempting to wipe or clean the area with a damp, soft cloth. Store cans in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures to maintain the shelf life of any remaining product.
