Johnstone's - Washable Paint - Black - Matt Finish - Emulsion Paint - Highly Durable - Stain Resistant - Non Toxic & Low Odour - 12m2 Coverage per Litre - 2.5L

I painted my hall walls, staircase walls and landing walls and ceilings with 3 X 2.5 litre tins of this quality paint. It's a thick paint but it looked better after two coats. It covered very well and I am pleased with the colour and the smooth matt finish. It takes about an hour to dry.

This paint is really durable, I bought 3 tubs thinking I'd need 3 coats per wall, but I only used 1.5 tubs (so about 3L). Each wall took a base coat with no primer and the second coat left no patches, very even coverage, dries nicely and beautiful tones! It arrived well packaged and in a timely manner (which was surprising to me as it was through Royal Mail/Evri). Considering other well known paint brands are more expensive, this product is great value for money and does what it says on the tin.

Great paint, lovely colour. Applied to walls great, only needed one coat! Dried quickly and has done a wonderful job. For reference we used this in our bathroom and we havent had any issues at all.

For a washable paint, it performs well and the colour gives a nice clean look once it’s on. It’s easy to use, decent thickness and covers the kids’ marks without too much effort. Dry time’s a bit longer than I’d like, but the washability is spot on and makes life easier in a busy house. I'd use it again for use.

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

Brilliant paint use for my bannister, very good coverage and dries really fast, only needed one coat, sprayed with lacquer coat to seat the paint and stop it from chipping

Lovely colour, looks amazing. The paint is quick drying. Gives excellent coverage. Gone from dark grey to cream in two coats.

This paint was a pleasant surprise. The coverage is excellent, even on older walls, and the colour dries evenly with a clean matt finish. It spreads smoothly with both roller and brush, and two coats were more than enough for a professional look. What stands out most is the washability. Marks wipe away easily without lifting the paint or leaving shiny patches, which makes it ideal for high traffic areas. It also dries quickly, so you can get a room finished in a short time. For the price, the performance is impressive, and the finish looks far more premium than expected. A very solid choice if you want durable, easy to clean walls.
