FAQs

Can I use Johnstone's Kitchen Paint in a bathroom?

Yes, due to its grease and condensation resisting properties, this paint is also highly suitable for use in bathrooms, which are typically areas of high condensation.

How many coats of paint will I need?

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and durability, especially when painting over a contrasting colour or bare plaster. Always refer to the specific instructions on the paint can.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity. Generally, it will be touch dry in a few hours, but allow the recommended recoat time (usually 2-4 hours) before applying a second coat. Full hardness may take longer.

Is this paint washable?

Yes, its tough and durable formulation means the painted surface can be gently wiped clean to remove marks and splashes, maintaining its appearance in a busy kitchen.

Can I use this paint on kitchen cabinets?

No, this paint is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings. For kitchen cabinets, a dedicated paint designed for wood or laminate surfaces is recommended.

What kind of finish does this paint have?

This is a matt emulsion paint, providing a smooth, non-reflective finish that helps to conceal minor surface imperfections.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering properly or peeling.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, dry, and free from grease or loose material before application. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to create a key for adhesion.

Uneven finish or visible brush/roller marks.

Apply paint evenly, avoiding overloading the brush or roller. Ensure consistent pressure and overlap. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to maintain consistency.

Grease marks reappear quickly after painting.

Thoroughly clean and degrease the walls before painting, using a sugar soap solution or a dedicated kitchen cleaner. Consider applying an additional coat if the area is particularly prone to heavy grease build-up.

Paint drying too slowly.

Ensure good ventilation in the room. Avoid painting in extremely cold or humid conditions, as these can significantly prolong drying times.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Application

  1. Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose material. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth. For previously painted glossy surfaces, lightly abrade to provide a key. Use a suitable primer if necessary, especially on new or porous surfaces.
  2. Stirring: Thoroughly stir the paint before use to ensure even colour and consistency.
  3. Application: Apply with a brush or roller. For best results, typically two coats are recommended. Allow sufficient drying time between coats (refer to product label for specific times).
  4. Ventilation: Ensure good ventilation during application and drying.

Compatibility

This paint is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings. It is not suitable for woodwork, metal, or exterior surfaces. Its grease and condensation resisting properties make it ideal for kitchens and bathrooms.

Care and Maintenance

To clean painted surfaces, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh abrasives or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the matt finish. For stubborn grease marks, a mild, non-abrasive household cleaner designed for painted surfaces can be used sparingly. Regular gentle cleaning will help maintain the paint's protective qualities and appearance.
