Yes, it is designed as a multi-surface paint, but ensure the furniture is properly primed and cleaned before application.
Yes, the formulation uses plant-based ingredients as a sustainable alternative to traditional binders.

Yes, this paint is formulated to be compatible with standard spray equipment.
Post Hill 68 consists of a blend of six pigments: bright red, magenta, violet, black, yellow, and white.
It provides a 'Dead Matt' finish, which is a flat, non-reflective, and sophisticated look.
The surface was likely not primed properly. Apply the recommended Red Primer and Undercoat before repainting.
Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and degreased. If the surface is glossy, sand it lightly to improve mechanical grip.
Success with Mylands paint relies heavily on preparation. Always start by ensuring the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or oils. The manufacturer strongly recommends using their dedicated Red Primer and Undercoat; this serves two purposes: it creates an even base to maximize the vibrancy of the six-pigment formula and improves mechanical adhesion for long-term durability. When finished, clean tools immediately with the appropriate cleaning agent as specified by the product labels. Store containers in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
