FAQs

How many coats of paint do I need?

Johnstone's One Coat Matt is designed for single-coat coverage. However, a second coat may be needed on dark or uneven surfaces.

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

It is suitable for use on interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint dries quickly, typically within a few hours.

How do I clean the paint?

You can wipe the paint with a damp cloth.

Do I need to prime the surface before painting?

Priming is recommended for bare surfaces, but the paint has self-undercoating properties.

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms and kitchens?

While it can be used in these areas, consider a paint specifically designed for high-moisture environments for best results.

What is the coverage rate?

Coverage varies depending on the surface, but typically you can expect good coverage.

Can I use a roller or a brush?

You can use either a brush or a roller for application.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or streaks

Ensure the paint is well-stirred before application. Apply an even coat, avoiding excessive rolling or brushing. If needed, apply a second coat.

Paint not covering well

Ensure the surface is properly prepared. Apply a second coat if the underlying surface is a very dark colour or uneven.

Paint is peeling

Make sure the surface is clean and free of loose paint. Ensure the paint is applied to a suitable surface.
