Intense Colour Technology refers to the advanced formulation using high-quality pigments to deliver rich, deep, and vibrant colours that maintain their beauty over time.

How durable is the matt finish?

How do I choose the right colour combinations?

Johnstone's MY Colour palette is curated to allow beautiful combinations. Consider using the 60-30-10 principle for interior design, where 60% is your dominant colour, 30% a secondary, and 10% an accent. You can combine this pink with other shades from the MY Colour range for a harmonious look.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or brush marks after drying.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and smooth before painting. Apply paint evenly, avoiding overloading the brush or roller, and maintain a 'wet edge' to prevent lap marks. Apply a second coat after the recommended drying time.

Poor colour coverage or streaking.

Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before and during use. Apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. A primer may be necessary, especially when painting over a significantly darker or contrasting colour.

Paint is not adhering properly or peeling.

This often indicates improper surface preparation. Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and sanded if necessary. Remove all loose material before painting. Consider using a suitable primer for difficult surfaces.

Noticeable odour after painting.

Although this paint has low VOC, some odour can still be present, especially in enclosed spaces. Ensure good ventilation during application and drying by opening windows and doors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, grease, or loose material. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth for an optimal finish. A suitable primer may be required for certain surfaces or if painting over a strong colour.
  2. Stir Thoroughly: Before and during use, stir the paint thoroughly to ensure an even consistency and colour distribution.
  3. Application: Apply with a good quality brush or roller. For best results, apply 2 coats. Allow adequate drying time between coats (refer to product label for specific times).

  • Colour Schemes: Designed to integrate with other colours within the Johnstone's MY Colour range, enabling custom colour palettes using principles like the 60-30-10 rule.

Care

  • Cleaning Tools: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water.
  • Surface Cleaning: Once fully cured (typically several days after the final coat), painted surfaces can generally be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent for maintenance. Avoid harsh abrasives or strong chemical cleaners as they may damage the matt finish.
  • Storage: Store leftover paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed.
