Product Information

Full details

Mylands Leadenhall No.118 is a premium, deep graphite grey paint designed for homeowners and designers seeking a sophisticated, historic-inspired aesthetic for interior walls and ceilings. Its primary benefit is a highly durable, washable, and scuff-resistant finish that performs exceptionally well in high-traffic zones like hallways and kitchens; however, users should note that as a deep, pigment-rich tone, it requires careful surface preparation to ensure even application and optimal color depth.

How many coats should I apply?

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks or streaks

Ensure you are using a high-quality roller and maintaining a 'wet edge' while painting to allow the finish to self-level properly.

Patchy appearance after first coat

Deep colors like Leadenhall No.118 often require two full coats to reach true opacity. Ensure the first coat is fully dry before applying the second.

Paint rubbing off during cleaning

Wait at least 2-4 weeks after painting for the finish to fully cure before performing any deep cleaning or scrubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying Leadenhall No.118, ensure the walls are clean, dry, and free of loose debris or oil. If you are painting over a drastically different color, apply a high-quality primer to ensure the deep grey pigments achieve true saturation. Use professional-grade rollers or brushes designed for water-based emulsions for a smooth finish. To care for your painted walls, allow the paint to fully cure before wiping with a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the matte texture.
