Farrow & Ball Dead Flat in Hay is designed for homeowners and decorators seeking a sophisticated, vintage-inspired matte finish on walls, woodwork, and metal. Its primary benefit is a highly durable, scuff-resistant surface that offers a remarkably flat aesthetic suitable for high-traffic areas like hallways and living rooms. A notable caveat for users is that the specific 'Hay' shade features a distinct green undertone, which requires careful lighting assessment to ensure it complements your space's existing decor.

No, this specific product is formulated for interior use on walls, woodwork, and metal.
For best results, especially on raw wood or metal, using an appropriate Farrow & Ball primer is recommended.
Two full coats are recommended to achieve the true depth of the colour and the full performance of the matte finish.
Yes, the Dead Flat formula is specifically designed to be scuff-resistant, making it ideal for hallways and living spaces.
In natural, bright light, the yellow tones will appear more prominent. In dimmer rooms, the green undertones become more established and apparent.
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.
Verify that the surface was properly cleaned and primed. Old, glossy, or greasy surfaces must be sanded down before application.
Before applying Dead Flat, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of grease or debris. For previously painted surfaces, a light sanding is recommended to improve adhesion. This paint is compatible with most interior surfaces, including properly primed metal and wood. To maintain the finish, use a soft, damp cloth for spot cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, which can alter the sheen of the matte surface. Always store the tin in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is sealed tightly after every use to prevent the paint from drying out.
