FAQs

Is this paint suitable for outdoor use?

No, Mylands Multi-Surface Eggshell FTT-009 is specifically designed for interior woodwork and metal surfaces.

Do I need a primer?

Yes, we recommend using a primer to ensure the best adhesion and a long-lasting result, particularly on new or porous surfaces.

Can I use this on radiators?

Yes, it is suitable for metal surfaces, making it a good choice for painting radiator covers or metal trim.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is quick-drying, though exact times vary based on ambient temperature and humidity; check the container for specific recoat intervals.

Is the finish matte or glossy?

This is an eggshell finish, which provides a soft, low-sheen luster that is durable and scuff-resistant.

How do I clean the finished surface?

The paint is washable, so you can clean it gently with a soft cloth and mild soapy water.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well to the surface.

Ensure the surface was properly primed. If not, sand lightly, apply an appropriate primer, and recoat.

Visible brush marks after drying.

Use a high-quality synthetic brush, maintain a 'wet edge' while painting, and ensure you are not overworking the paint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve a long-lasting finish, always ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease before painting. Since this is an eggshell paint, we strongly recommend applying a high-quality primer first to ensure the paint bonds properly to the substrate, especially on bare wood or previously untreated metal. Use a high-quality synthetic brush or a fine-nap roller to apply in thin, even coats to maximize the smoothness of the finish. For care, avoid harsh chemical cleaners; a soft cloth with mild soapy water is usually sufficient to maintain the scuff-resistant surface.
