FAQs

Is this paint suitable for exterior use?

No, this specific product is formulated for interior surfaces. For exterior masonry, please consider the dedicated Mylands Masonry Paint.

Does this paint require a primer?

While it can be applied directly to many surfaces, a primer is recommended for bare wood, metal, or highly absorbent substrates to ensure the best adhesion and color uniformity.

Can I use this on furniture?

Yes, its multi-surface formulation makes it suitable for furniture, though you should ensure the surface is properly primed and allowed to cure fully before heavy use.

How long does it take to dry?

Typically, the paint is touch-dry within a few hours, but it is recommended to wait at least 4-6 hours between coats and 24 hours for it to fully cure.

Is the color exactly as shown in the catalog?

Colors can vary depending on your screen settings and the lighting in your room; we recommend testing a sample on your wall first.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears patchy after one coat

Dead matt paints often require two full coats to achieve full color saturation; ensure even application and proper drying time between coats.

Finish looks shiny in some areas

This is often caused by over-brushing or rubbing the surface; allow the paint to self-level and avoid excessive manipulation while wet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, flat aesthetic without glare
  • Rich and complex color depth
  • Versatile application across different interior substrates
  • Perfect size for smaller decorative projects or testing

Cons

  • Dead matt finishes show scuffs more easily than satin or gloss
  • Requires careful cleaning to avoid burnishing the finish
  • Limited coverage area due to 250ml size

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. For optimal results, apply a suitable primer if painting onto bare or highly porous surfaces. Use high-quality synthetic brushes or rollers to achieve a smooth finish. To care for your painted surfaces, avoid harsh abrasive cleaners. If cleaning is necessary, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Do not scrub the area, as friction can cause the matte finish to develop an unwanted sheen or 'burnish'. Always store the tin in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
