Johnstone's Washable Matt Paint

I used this for refreshing a room that was starting to look tired and was impressed with how well it covered. The colour is a soft grey with a slight warmth to it and looks different depending on the lighting throughout the day. The paint goes on smoothly with both a roller and brush and doesn't seem to splatter too much during application. Coverage was better than expected and I needed fewer touch-ups than I normally do with lighter colours. Once dry it gives a clean modern finish and being washable is a bonus in a busy family home where marks on walls are unavoidable. Overall, a good quality paint that looks great once finished and is easy enough for DIY use.

When I saw the flat matt finish on this emulsion when it dried I thought there was no way that it could be washable. I am so happy that I was wrong because this paint genuinely is tough and washable! It will be perfect for my hallway and up the stairs! It is a very thick paint so I have already used a whole 2.5L tin. I have painted ³/⁴ of the way up my hallway, stairs and landing walls. The stairs wall still needs another coat too but this could be down to my not so great decorating experience. It really is a lovely colour. It has warmed up and made my very small and narrow hallway look so much warmer and inviting. I like the colour so much that I have bought another tin because I have decided to paint my kitchen in the same colour. It goes really well with grey and white and the black and white carpet runner I will be putting down on the stairs. It washes out of the brushes and rollers quite easily too. There is absolutely zero smell and it dries fairly quickly too. Also, the price at £10.99 was absolutely fantastic! So thank you Amazon! Overall I am super happy and cannot wait to start on my kitchen. I would 100% recommend this paint to anyone that needs a good paint for a high traffic area

Lovely colour paint very happy 😃 with it. Goes on well no mess. Quick drying time in just a few hours of doing each coat in the bathroom. The smell is not overwhelming like some is or really strong. Very good value for money 💸 would recommend this paint to anyone. The size of the tub of paint is enough to do one small/medium bathroom so u only need the 1 Tin. Great 👍 Finish.

I was worried reading some of the reviews but pleasantly surprised. The colour is black (not blue or grey as some reviews stated). It covered well (though was going on a white wall but panelling so mix of plaster, caulk and wood). I done 2 coats for good measure but one would have sufficed. I used a brush for the panelling joins then a foam roller. Finished product is great, definitely matt not silk like some reviews state. I can imagine it is not going to be particularly washable or hard wearing but so far all is good!

I was very pleased with this paint, the thick consistency meant that it covered the area well where I was painting. The finish was excellent and the colour dries to a nice almost matt finish which was exactly what I was wanting. Time will tell if it is as durable as it says but after two coats that were required I feel sure it will be. Easy to use, versatile and washable. Over all I would say it was value for money and fully recommend this paint.

This was exactly the colour that I needed! I ordered 2.5l which was more than enough for a feature wall as the tub says it covers 12m2. It's such a bold and vibrant colour that it is does need a couple of coats, especially if you are painting white drywalls in a new build! It is a lovely colour and exactly the shade on the tub. The texture is great and it dries in a beautiful matt finish. It's washable too which is super helpful if you have small children who thoroughly enjoy drawing on the walls as I do! I loved this paint so much that I went on to buy the paint for the rest of my home from this brand. I still have half a tub of this left so it is excellent value for money as the tub size looks small and makes you think you won't have enough but use a roller and it will go a long way!

I Recently used Johnstone’s Washable Paint in Manhattan Grey for my living room, and I’m really impressed with the results. The matt finish gives the walls a modern, elegant look without any shine, and the coverage is excellent — the 2.5L pot easily covered the advertised 12m² per litre. The paint goes on smoothly and is very easy to apply with a roller, with no streaks or uneven patches. I particularly appreciated that it’s low odour and non-toxic, which made painting indoors much more comfortable. Cleanup was simple, and any minor splashes washed off surfaces easily. I’ve also tested its durability — the walls wipe clean with no marks or stains, which is perfect for a busy home. Overall, I would highly recommend this paint to anyone looking for a high-quality, washable, and durable finish for interior walls.” Pros: Smooth application, matte elegant finish, low odour, non-toxic, washable Cons: Takes two coats for deeper coverage on very dark walls

I love it! It went on the walls like a dream and once fully dried it looks lovely. No dripping or splashing which is was happy about I think for the price and for what I wanted the quality is perfect it did take 2 and half tins to cover my living room but still happy.

Er was in mijn haar gemorst. Ik krijg het er echt niet uit. Ook niet meer uit kledij. Zeer raar voor een verf op waterbasis

Lovely colour and brilliant paint to work with
