FAQs

Is this paint suitable for radiators?

Yes, it is formulated for multi-surface use, including metal surfaces like radiators.

Can I use this on walls?

While it is designed for woodwork and trim, Mylands offers specific emulsion variants like Marble Matt for wall surfaces.

Is the paint washable?

Yes, the finish is durable and designed to be washable with a soft, damp cloth.

Do I need a primer?

For bare or porous surfaces, a primer is recommended to ensure the best durability and even finish.

Can I use a spray gun with this paint?

Yes, this paint is formulated to be compatible with spray equipment, brushes, and rollers.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush strokes during application

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and do not over-work the paint; apply in long, even strokes.

Paint is not sticking to metal

Ensure the metal surface is properly degreased and, if necessary, lightly sanded and primed with a dedicated metal primer.

Drying time is longer than expected

Ensure the room is well-ventilated and avoid painting in high-humidity or cold conditions, which slow down the evaporation process.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Rich, traditional colour with a fresh, modern appeal
  • Environmentally conscious plant-based ingredients
  • Highly durable and scuff-resistant finish
  • Quick-drying formula speeds up project turnaround
  • Suitable for both brush and spray application

Cons

  • Requires careful surface prep for optimal adhesion
  • Best suited for interior use rather than exterior exposure
  • Requires specific finish selection from the Mylands range for exact sheen requirements

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance, start by cleaning all surfaces thoroughly to remove dust, grease, or peeling paint. If applying to metal or bare wood, use an appropriate primer to guarantee maximum adhesion. Stir the paint well before use to ensure the pigments are properly mixed.

  • Application: Use a high-quality synthetic brush for woodwork or a short-pile mohair roller for larger flat areas.
  • Clean-Up: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use. Because it is plant-based, most tools can be cleaned with soap and warm water if addressed promptly.
  • Maintenance: Once fully cured, the surface can be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that may dull the satin finish over time.
