FAQs

What kind of surfaces can I paint with 'Aquamarine Dream'?

This paint is suitable for interior walls, ceilings, furniture, and cabinets. Ensure surfaces are properly prepared before application.

Is this paint safe for children's rooms?

Yes, its low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) content means it releases fewer harmful chemicals, making it a safer option for indoor environments, including children's rooms.

How many coats of paint are typically needed?

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal colour depth and durability. More may be needed if painting over a very dark or contrasting colour or for a stronger finish.

How long does the paint take to dry between coats?

Info needed: [drying time between coats]

What is 'Intense Colour Technology'?

Intense Colour Technology uses high-quality pigments to deliver rich, deep, and lasting colours, ensuring your chosen shade, like Aquamarine Dream, remains vibrant and beautiful over time.

Can I use this paint outdoors?

No, Johnstone's My Colour Durable Matt Paint is formulated specifically for interior use and is not recommended for exterior applications.

Troubleshooting

Uneven colour or streaks after drying

Ensure the paint is thoroughly stirred before and during application. Apply thin, even coats and maintain a wet edge to blend sections smoothly. Avoid overworking the paint.

Paint not adhering well or peeling

Thoroughly clean and prime the surface before painting. Ensure the surface is dry, stable, and free of loose debris, grease, or old peeling paint. Adequate surface preparation is critical for adhesion.

Strong paint odour persists for an extended period

Ensure adequate ventilation during and after painting by opening windows and doors. While low VOC, some odour is normal and will dissipate more quickly with good airflow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Prepare the Surface: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose debris, dust, grease, or flaking paint. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth. For previously painted surfaces, a light sanding may be beneficial. Apply a suitable primer if painting over bare, porous, or significantly contrasting surfaces.
Stir Thoroughly: Before and during use, stir the paint well to ensure an even consistency and colour.
Application: Apply with a good quality brush or roller. Work in even strokes, maintaining a 'wet edge' to avoid streaks. Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal colour and durability.

Compatibility

Interior Walls: Ideal for all interior plaster and drywall surfaces.
Furniture: Can be used to refresh wooden furniture, ensuring it's properly prepped and primed.
Cabinets: Suitable for kitchen or bathroom cabinets after thorough cleaning and priming.
Not for Exterior Use: This paint is specifically formulated for indoor applications.

Care

Cleaning Painted Surfaces: For general maintenance, gently wipe painted surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, as this can damage the matt finish.
Tool Cleanup: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly until water runs clear and allow tools to dry completely before storing.
