Johnstones Aqua Satin

Johnstone's Aqua Satin is a water-based satin finish paint that provides a smooth and durable finish to interior walls and ceilings. It has a low odour, low VOC (volatile organic compounds) content, and is quick-drying.

The paint is suitable for use on a variety of surfaces, including plaster, brick, and concrete, and can be applied using a brush, roller, or spray. It is also washable, making it ideal for high-traffic areas such as kitchens and bathrooms.

Aqua Satin is available in a range of colours, allowing you to choose the perfect shade for your home. The paint is also easy to clean up, as it can be simply washed away with soap and water.

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, Aqua Satin also provides excellent durability, ensuring that your walls and ceilings will look great for years to come. The paint forms a tough, long-lasting film that is resistant to knocks, scrapes, and everyday wear and tear.

One of the key benefits of Aqua Satin is that it is water-based. This makes it much easier to work with than traditional oil-based paints, as it does not emit strong fumes or require solvents for clean up. Additionally, water-based paints are generally considered to be safer and more environmentally friendly than oil-based paints.

Aqua Satin is also a versatile paint, making it ideal for a wide range of projects. Whether you are painting a single room or an entire house, this paint will provide the coverage and finish you need. Furthermore, its quick-drying formula means that you can apply several coats in one day, reducing the amount of time and effort required for your project.

Does Johnstones aqua satin yellow?

Johnstone Trade Aqua and gloss paint is a great choice for reliable, cost-effective painting that looks its best for a long duration. Despite being water-based, the paint does not discolour or yellow nearly as soon as oil-based products do, even when exposed to low light conditions over time. It is designed to provide a satin finish that stands out from the crowd without compromising on quality or durability. 

Is Johnstone’s satin paint good?

Johnstone's satin paint is a wonderfully versatile and easy-to-use product, condensed so you can use it out of the tin when necessary. Its satiny creamy texture allows you to spread it with excellent coverage, creating a rich warm colour that is sure to enrich any area. When applying Johnstones Aqua Water satin paint, you may want to dilute it slightly with white spirit for easier flow and fewer brush marks. This can give an empathetic touch of shine which gradually decreases over the course of two weeks or so, eventually leaving a clean contemporary flat finish with the desired sturdiness and lasting effect. 

What is johnstone aqua satin?

Is satin water or oil based?

With aqua satinwood from brands such as Johnstones, you can allow yourself to create a great look at a budget price. Water based satin is becoming increasingly popular and the satin brilliant white finish ensures that you won't go wrong! However, it is important to remember that water-based paints will require extra care when brushing to ensure that brush marks are kept to a minimum so make sure you grab yourself a soft bristle brush for the best results. 

How long does old paint last and what to do with it?

Paint is an essential material, which allows us to decorate our homes and interiors with expertly coordinated colour, satinwood and aqua. However, all types of paint, including those from Johnstone’s Paint Johnstone Trade, don’t last forever. The length of shelf life for each type of paint varies depending on its ingredients. On average, an unopened can of latex or acrylic paint lasts up to 10 years. Oil-based or alkyd-based paints can have a shelf life of up to 15 years if they are unopened. Chalk paint has a shorter lifespan of 1-3 years, while milk paint only lasts 1-2 weeks after being mixed. 

Expired paint can be bad news, with both the smell and texture of satinwood, aqua and johnstone's water based satin being telltale indicators of something amiss. Paint that has gone off often produces a rancid or sour smell - similar to sour milk - as well as a lumpy or chunky consistency. Additionally, adhesion issues indicate that the paint is no longer fit for use. Above all else, expired paint often gives off an unhealthy amount of VOCs or paint fumes. For these reasons, it’s important to replace your old paint with new ones if you want the best performance in your decorating efforts. Before heading out to make the purchase however, it's wise to make sure you are purchasing the correct type and allowing enough for your list of projects.
