FAQs

Where can I use Johnstone's MY Colour Luxurious Durable Matt Paint?

This paint is ideal for interior walls, furniture, and cabinets. Its durable nature makes it particularly suitable for high-traffic areas like family rooms, hallways, and kitchens.

What makes this paint 'durable'?

It features an advanced formula specifically designed for longevity and resistance to daily wear and tear. This helps maintain a pristine look even in busy environments.

What does 'low VOC' mean for me and my family?

Low VOC (volatile organic compounds) means the paint releases fewer harmful chemicals into the air during application and drying. This results in better indoor air quality and a safer environment for your family.

How do I ensure the colour looks its best?

For the best colour rendition, ensure the surface is properly prepared and primed. Apply the paint in even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between each. Consider how natural and artificial light interacts with the colour in your space.

Can I use this paint in bathrooms?

While it's suitable for kitchens, for areas with very high humidity like bathrooms, a paint specifically formulated with enhanced moisture and mould resistance might be a more appropriate choice. Info needed: Specific mould resistance properties of this paint.

How do I clean surfaces painted with this matt finish?

Gently wipe the painted surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or scrubbing vigorously, as this can damage the delicate matt finish.

Is this paint part of a larger colour range?

Yes, Johnstone's MY Colour is a curated palette of 21 trend-led colours, designed to help you create harmonious and personalized colour schemes.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or brush/roller marks are visible.

Ensure paint is stirred thoroughly. Apply paint evenly, avoiding excessive pressure on the roller or brush. Maintain a wet edge and avoid overworking the paint. Ensure adequate drying time between coats.

Paint is not adhering properly or is peeling.

This often indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and free of grease, dust, or loose paint chips. Lightly sand glossy surfaces before painting for better adhesion. Use an appropriate primer if necessary.

Colour appears different than expected.

Paint colour can vary slightly depending on lighting conditions (natural vs. artificial light) and the colour of the existing surface. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first. A suitable undercoat can help achieve the true colour on darker or unevenly coloured surfaces.

Paint takes too long to dry.

Ensure good ventilation in the room. High humidity or low temperatures can prolong drying times. Apply paint in thin, even coats rather than thick layers.

Paint has a strong odour.

While this paint is low VOC, some odour may be present during application. Ensure the area is well-ventilated during painting and drying by opening windows and doors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose material. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth. For previously painted surfaces, lightly sand to create a key.
  2. Prime (if necessary): For new, bare, or porous surfaces, or if there's a significant colour change, apply an appropriate primer or undercoat. This ensures optimal adhesion and colour consistency.
  3. Stir Thoroughly: Before and during use, stir the paint well to ensure an even colour and consistency.
  4. Application: Apply with a good quality brush or roller. For best results, apply in thin, even coats. Allow recommended drying time between coats.

Compatibility

  • Interior Surfaces: This paint is specifically designed for interior use.
  • Materials: Compatible with a variety of surfaces including plaster walls, drywall, wood (furniture, skirting boards, doors, cabinets), and other suitably prepared interior surfaces.

Care

  • Cleaning Painted Surfaces: For general cleaning, gently wipe the painted surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, which can damage the matt finish.
  • Touch-ups: Keep a small amount of paint for touch-ups to easily cover minor marks or scuffs that may occur over time.
