FAQs

Does Leadenhall No.118 look different in varying light?

Yes, its complex undertones of blue, green, and violet react differently to natural and artificial light, often appearing more graphite or more muted depending on the time of day.

Can I use this on outdoor surfaces?

Yes, Mylands offers specific masonry variants of Leadenhall 118 designed to withstand exterior elements.

Is this paint suitable for high-traffic areas?

The durability depends on the specific finish you select, such as satin or eggshell, which are generally more wipeable than dead matt.

Do I need a primer before applying?

While it has excellent coverage, we always recommend a primer on new or porous surfaces for the best long-term results.

How should I clean my brushes after using?

Follow the instructions on the specific tin, as cleaning requirements may vary based on whether the paint is water-based or oil-based.

Troubleshooting

Visible brush strokes or roller marks

Thin the paint slightly if allowed, or ensure you are not overworking the paint as it begins to dry.

Uneven color intensity

Ensure the surface is properly primed and that you are using the same batch of paint across the entire area.

Paint peeling or bubbling

Check that the surface was completely dry and free of moisture or oil before initial application.

Pros and Cons

  • High-quality coverage that reduces the number of required coats
  • Available in a variety of finishes and container sizes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying Leadenhall No.118, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over porous surfaces, apply a high-quality primer to ensure even absorption. For optimal results, stir the paint thoroughly before use and apply in thin, even coats using a high-quality synthetic brush or roller. To maintain the finish, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners; instead, wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. Always keep the lid tightly sealed when not in use and store in a cool, dry place to maintain shelf life.
