Johnstone's suggested the use of its innovative Water Based Acrylic Durable Matt emulsion, which combines excellent coverage and opacity with a special washable formula that allows walls and ceilings to be regularly cleaned between redecoration programmes.
David Baines, Johnstone's Technical Specification Consultant explains further; "Within a school environment, it is vital that the paintwork is able to withstand frequent cleaning in order to remove any marks or dirt and so traditionally, finishes with a higher sheen level such as Eggshell or Gloss have been used. Johnstone's Acrylic Durable Matt is one of the few available emulsions that retains a true matt finish even when regularly scrubbed and so is ideally suited for use in such a high traffic environment as a school".
Johnstone's technical consultants also conducted special workshops with the facilities management team from Carillion to advise the most effective cleaning procedures and to further demonstrate the suitability and benefit of the Acrylic Durable Matt product.
