Product Information

Full details

The Mylands Westmoreland 160 Multi-Surface Dead Matt Paint is an ideal choice for interior design enthusiasts looking to achieve a sophisticated, historical aesthetic with a warm, natural brown finish. Drawing inspiration from the 1930 Dictionary of Colour, this paint offers a unique stony hue with subtle yellow undertones, making it perfect for creating a muted, earthy atmosphere in any room. While its dead matt finish provides an elegant, non-reflective surface, users should be aware that the high-pigment, flat finish may show scuffs more readily than higher-sheen paints in high-traffic areas.

FAQs

Can I use this paint on furniture?

Yes, it is a multi-surface paint suitable for various interior surfaces including wood and properly primed metal.

What is a dead matt finish?

It is an extremely flat, non-reflective finish that absorbs light, which helps hide surface irregularities.

Does this paint require a primer?

While it has excellent coverage, it is always recommended to prime bare or porous surfaces to ensure the best durability and color consistency.

How do I store the paint?

Keep it in its original container, tightly sealed, and stored in a temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight.

Is this suitable for high-traffic areas?

Due to its dead matt finish, it is best suited for walls or decor items rather than high-traffic areas like baseboards or door frames.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears patchy after first coat

Apply a second coat once the first is completely dry, ensuring even strokes and proper loading of the brush or roller.

Finish looks too shiny in some areas

This may indicate poor surface preparation or uneven application; ensure the surface is properly sanded and primed before repainting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated dead matt finish hides wall blemishes.
  • Versatile multi-surface application.
  • Timeless, historical color profile.
  • Warm, natural aesthetic complements various interior styles.

Cons

  • Dead matt finish can be more susceptible to marking.
  • Limited to interior applications.
  • Requires careful preparation to ensure uniform adhesion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, start with a clean, dry, and dust-free surface. If applying to bare wood or metal, ensure you use an appropriate primer to guarantee adhesion. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed. For maintenance, clean surfaces gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners, as the dead matt finish can be burnished or damaged if cleaned too vigorously. Keep the tin sealed tightly when not in use and store in a cool, dry place to prevent premature drying.
