Yes, due to its grease-resisting properties and protection against high condensation, Johnstone's Kitchen Matt Emulsion Paint is also suitable for use in bathrooms and other areas prone to high moisture.
A matt finish is a non-shiny, low-sheen finish that offers a soft, elegant look. It's excellent for hiding minor imperfections on walls and ceilings and provides a contemporary aesthetic.
For most clean, dry, and sound surfaces, a primer may not be necessary. However, if painting over bare plaster, highly absorbent surfaces, or dark colors, a suitable primer or an initial mist coat (diluted first coat) might be beneficial for best adhesion and coverage. Always refer to the product label for specific recommendations.
Clean all painting tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly until all paint residue is removed.
Info needed: The exact coverage rate can vary depending on the surface porosity and application method. Please refer to the specific coverage information provided on the product tin label for accurate details.
Info needed: Drying times can vary based on temperature, humidity, and ventilation. For precise touch dry and recoat times, please consult the instructions on the product tin label.
Ensure the surface is properly prepared, clean, and dry. Apply paint evenly with a good quality brush or roller. Allow sufficient drying time between coats and apply a second coat if needed. For optimal results, ensure the paint is thoroughly stirred before and during use.
Ensure adequate ventilation in the room during and after painting. Check that the room temperature is within the recommended range for application (usually between 10-30°C). High humidity or low temperatures can prolong drying times.
Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned of all existing grease and contaminants before painting. While the paint is grease-resisting, heavy build-up of new grease should be wiped away regularly with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy grease.
This often indicates poor surface preparation or moisture issues. Ensure the surface is completely dry and free of loose material before painting. Address any underlying moisture problems or leaks. For glossy surfaces, ensure they were lightly abraded to create a 'key' for adhesion.
This paint is suitable for interior walls and ceilings. It is specifically formulated for high-traffic, high-condensation areas such as kitchens, utility rooms, and potentially bathrooms, where its grease and moisture resistance are beneficial. It is not designed for exterior use or for direct application on woodwork or metal without an appropriate primer.
