FAQs

How many coats of Johnstone's MY Colour Luxurious Durable Matt Paint do I need?

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and color depth, especially if you are painting over a contrasting color. Always allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom or kitchen?

Yes, its durable matt finish makes it suitable for busy areas like kitchens and hallways. For bathrooms, while durable, ensure adequate ventilation to prevent excessive moisture build-up, as prolonged exposure to steam can affect any paint over time.

Is this paint washable?

Yes, due to its durable formulation, surfaces painted with this product can typically be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent for general marks without damaging the finish.

What does 'Low VOC' mean?

'Low VOC' stands for Low Volatile Organic Compounds. This means the paint releases fewer harmful chemicals into the air during and after application, contributing to better indoor air quality and making it a more environmentally friendly choice.

Can I use this paint on exterior surfaces?

No, Johnstone's MY Colour Luxurious Durable Matt Paint is specifically formulated for interior use only. For exterior projects, you would need to select a paint designed to withstand outdoor elements.

What is 'Intense Colour Technology'?

Intense Colour Technology refers to the use of high-quality, concentrated pigments that deliver rich, vibrant, and long-lasting color. This ensures the chosen grey shade remains deep and beautiful over time, resisting fading.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears streaky or uneven.

Ensure the surface was clean and properly primed. Apply paint in thin, even coats using good quality tools (brush/roller) and maintain a 'wet edge' to avoid lap marks. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Poor coverage or color looks different than expected.

Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to ensure pigments are evenly distributed. For significant color changes or porous surfaces, a primer is highly recommended. Apply a second coat after the first has fully dried.

Paint is peeling or flaking.

This often indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and free of loose paint or debris. If the surface was glossy, it should have been lightly sanded to provide a 'key' for the paint to adhere to. Always prime problem surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Durability: Withstands scuffs and marks, making it great for active households.
  • Rich, Lasting Color: Intense Colour Technology ensures the grey shade remains vibrant and deep for longer.
  • Smooth, Flawless Finish: Easy to apply, contributing to a professional and luxurious look.
  • Versatile Use: Can be applied to various interior surfaces beyond just walls.
  • Environmentally Conscious: Low VOC formulation is better for indoor air quality.

Cons

  • Specific Finish: Only available in a matt finish, which might not suit all aesthetic preferences (e.g., those desiring a sheen).
  • Interior Use Only: Not designed for exterior applications, limiting its overall usability to indoor projects.
  • Preparation Required: Like all quality paints, achieving optimal results requires thorough surface preparation, which can be time-consuming.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, or loose material. Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler and sand smooth.
  2. Prime (Optional but Recommended): For untreated or highly porous surfaces, or when changing a drastically darker color to a lighter one, apply a suitable primer or undercoat for optimal adhesion and color uniformity.
  3. Stir Thoroughly: Before and during use, stir the paint well to ensure an even consistency and color distribution.
  4. Application: Apply with a brush or roller. For best results, use a good quality synthetic brush for cutting in and a medium-pile roller for larger areas. Apply in thin, even coats.
  5. Drying Time: Allow adequate drying time between coats (refer to product label for specific times, typically 2-4 hours). Avoid overworking the paint.

Compatibility

  • Surfaces: Ideal for interior walls, ceilings, suitable furniture (after appropriate preparation), and interior cabinetry.
  • Environment: Formulated for interior use only. Do not use for exterior projects.

Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning Painted Surfaces: Due to its durable nature, surfaces painted with Johnstone's MY Colour Luxurious Durable Matt Paint can typically be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent for general marks or dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, as this can damage the matt finish.
  • Storage: Store unused paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent drying.
