FAQs

Can I use this paint outdoors?

Yes, it is formulated for both interior and exterior wood and metal surfaces.

Does this paint require a primer?

For best results, particularly on bare wood or metal, a high-quality primer is recommended to ensure even adhesion.

How do I clean the surface once painted?

The cured finish is washable; simply use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

Is this paint suitable for floors?

While this is a multi-surface gloss, for dedicated high-traffic floor applications, consider the specific Mylands Decorative Floor Satin range.

What is the best way to apply this for a smooth finish?

For large areas, professional spray equipment is recommended. For smaller areas, a high-quality synthetic brush will produce the best results.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush marks after drying

Use a higher quality synthetic brush and apply in thinner coats. Ensure the surface is properly primed and sanded first.

Paint is bubbling or peeling

This is often caused by applying onto a dirty or oily surface. Clean the surface with a degreaser and sand down before re-applying.

Surface imperfections are too visible

High gloss naturally highlights flaws. Use a high-build primer and sand the surface to a perfectly smooth finish before applying the topcoat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal adhesion, clean the surface thoroughly to remove grease, dust, and loose particles. For previously painted surfaces, lightly sand the area to create a 'key' for the new layer of paint to grip. If applying to raw wood or bare metal, use an appropriate primer to prevent bleeding and ensure color uniformity. Apply the paint in thin, even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between applications to avoid sagging. Store the tin in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is sealed tightly to prevent skinning. Clean all brushes and spray equipment according to the instructions relevant to the specific base of the paint to maintain tool longevity.
