Question 1

What is Jotun Jotashield Colorlast Matt 1860 4L, and what is it used for?

Accepted Answer

Jotun Jotashield Colorlast Matt 1860 4L is a water-based interior matt paint from Jotun designed to give interior walls a modern, non-reflective finish while providing long-lasting color protection. The 4L pack is suitable for typical rooms and living spaces, helping walls stay vibrant over time.

Question 2

What finish does Colorlast Matt provide and what does that mean for my walls?

Accepted Answer

It provides a matte finish, which creates a non-shiny, contemporary look and helps hide minor wall imperfections. The matte finish is typically less reflective and can feel softer to the touch, giving a clean, modern appearance.

Question 3

What interior surfaces can I paint with Jotun Colorlast Matt 1860?

Accepted Answer

This paint is suitable for interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces, provided they are clean, dry, and stable. Avoid exterior surfaces and areas with high moisture without a moisture-rated product.

Question 4

How should I prepare the surface before applying Colorlast Matt?

Accepted Answer

Start with a clean surface: remove dirt, grease, and dust. Repair cracks or holes, sand gloss surfaces to dull the finish, and remove debris. If painting bare plaster or new masonry, prime as recommended. Ensure the surface is completely dry before painting.

Question 5

How do I apply this paint—what tools and technique should I use?

Accepted Answer

Use a high-quality synthetic brush for edges, and a roller for larger areas. Apply in a W-pattern to distribute the paint evenly and avoid streaks. Start with a cutting-in pass at the edges, then roll in sections for consistent coverage. Two coats are typically recommended for best color and durability.

Question 6

What are the drying times between coats and the overall dry time?

Accepted Answer

Drying times depend on temperature and humidity, but typically you can recoat after about 2–4 hours under normal conditions. The paint will continue to cure over several days; ensure the surface is unaffected by moisture during this time.

Question 7

What safety and compliance aspects should I know about this paint?

Accepted Answer

Colorlast Matt is water-based and designed to be low in odor with low VOC content. It cleans up with water and soap before it dries. Ensure good ventilation during application and keep the product away from children and pets during setup and drying.

Question 8

How durable is the finish, and is it washable or stain-resistant?

Accepted Answer

The Colorlast line is formulated to resist fading and staining better than standard matt finishes. It offers reasonable washability for everyday dirt and marks; avoid aggressive scrubbing to maintain the matt appearance and color integrity.

Question 9

Can Colorlast Matt be tinted to different colors, and how does that work on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Colorlast Matt can be tinted within Jotun’s color system to a range of colors. Tinting is typically done at the point of purchase by qualified staff to ensure color accuracy and performance.

Question 10

What is the expected coverage, and how much paint should I buy for a project?

Accepted Answer

Coverage varies with surface porosity and texture, but matte interior paints like Colorlast Matt generally cover a broad area per litre per coat. Use a room’s surface area calculation (walls and ceiling) and factor in two coats plus a little extra for touch-ups when deciding how many litres to buy.

Question 11

Is this paint suitable for high-humidity areas like kitchens or bathrooms?

Accepted Answer

Colorlast Matt is designed for interior walls but is not specifically a moisture- or humidity-rated product. For high-humidity areas, consider a moisture-resistant or bathroom-rated paint designed for such conditions to ensure longevity and performance.
