This plant-based paint offers exceptional depth and ease of application across various surfaces, making it an excellent choice for those wanting to add warmth and character to their space.

FAQs

Is this paint safe for nurseries?

Mylands uses a plant-based formula which is an environmentally conscious choice, though you should always ensure the room is well-ventilated during and after painting.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

Dead matt finishes are generally not recommended for areas with high humidity or frequent moisture as they are more porous than satin or gloss finishes.

How many coats do I need?

Usually, two coats are sufficient for a professional, opaque finish, depending on the colour of the surface underneath.

How do I clean the paint off my brushes?

Since this is a water-based formula, you can typically clean your tools with warm, soapy water immediately after use.

Does it need a primer?

On most standard interior walls, a primer is not strictly necessary if the surface is clean, but it is recommended for bare plaster or porous surfaces.

Is the finish truly matte?

Yes, the 'Dead Matt' finish has extremely low light reflection, providing a flat, elegant look that reduces glare.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush marks after drying

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid overworking the paint as it begins to set.

Paint not sticking to the surface

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and lightly sanded if previously painted with a high-gloss finish.

Surface feels rough or gritty

Sand the surface lightly between coats once completely dry and ensure no debris was picked up by the roller during application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Environmentally friendly plant-based ingredients
  • Sophisticated colour depth with umber undertones
  • Easy to apply with standard painting tools
  • Glare-free dead matt finish hides wall imperfections
  • Versatile multi-surface usage

  • Dead matt finishes can be more susceptible to marking
  • May require more care when cleaning compared to gloss finishes
  • Not suitable for high-traffic exterior areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. If painting over glossy surfaces, lightly sand the area to provide a "key" for better adhesion. Use high-quality brushes or rollers to ensure the best finish. For best results, stir the paint thoroughly before use. When cleaning, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, as the dead matt finish can be sensitive to aggressive scrubbing; a soft, damp microfiber cloth is usually sufficient for dust removal. Always store the paint container in a cool, dry place with the lid securely closed to prevent skinning.
