Johnstones Ultra High Opacity Matt Paint

Steve_xx

I'm thinking of using Johnstones Ultra High Opacity Matt Paint - Brilliant white, to emulsion walls and ceilings in the hall/staircase.

My main reason for considering this product is because it says it has a high opacity and so is likely to cover well. Also it costs a good bit less than Dulux Trade, depending on where it's sourced from.

Have any of you used this Johnstones product? If so, I'd like to hear your views on it.

I run a maintenance company and we regularly use Johnstones paints. They are good quality and I would happily recommend them.

I would recommend Johnstone paint too. But I have some doubt about emulsioning walls in brilliant white. It is good for ceilings and window reveals, but shows contact marks all too well.

Thanks for that. Yes I see your point. I'm more concerned about its ability to cover in one coat rather than any marking problems to be honest.
