Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What’s the difference between silk and matt paint?
A: Silk has a subtle sheen that reflects light, making rooms appear brighter. Matt has a flat, non-reflective finish ideal for hiding imperfections. Silk is more durable and easier to wipe clean.

Q: Is it suitable for high-moisture areas like kitchens or bathrooms?
A: While it can be used in kitchens and bathrooms, Johnstone's also offers specially formulated moisture-resistant paints for better long-term protection in those environments.

Q: Can I apply this paint over existing painted surfaces?
A: Yes, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of flaking paint. Light sanding may be needed to promote adhesion.

Q: Do I need to prime the surface before using this paint?
A: Primer is not typically needed on previously painted surfaces. For bare or porous surfaces, apply a mist coat (a diluted first coat) to seal and prepare the surface.
