FAQs

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms?

No, the dead matt finish is not moisture-resistant and is not recommended for high-humidity areas like bathrooms.

Can I use this on furniture?

Yes, it is a multi-surface paint, but keep in mind that the dead matt finish may show wear quickly on frequently handled furniture.

How many coats are typically required?

For optimal depth of color and even coverage, two coats are generally recommended, allowing for proper drying time in between.

Is the finish washable?

The dead matt finish is not considered washable. It is best suited for low-traffic areas like bedrooms where minimal contact occurs.

Does it have a strong odor?

Mylands paints are known for professional quality; however, ensure the room is well-ventilated during application and drying.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller streaks

Ensure you are using a high-quality roller and maintain a 'wet edge' while painting to allow for seamless blending.

Paint rubbing off during cleaning

The dead matt finish is delicate; avoid abrasive sponges and use only a very light touch with a soft, damp cloth.

Uneven color saturation

Ensure the surface is properly primed before application, especially if painting over a dark color or highly absorbent material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant and classic color tone
  • Sophisticated dead matt finish
  • Versatile application across multiple surfaces
  • Brightens up smaller rooms
  • Ideal for serene spaces like nurseries

Cons

  • Dead matt finish can be harder to clean than higher-sheen paints
  • Not recommended for high-traffic or high-moisture areas
  • Available in smaller volumes, requiring careful planning for larger areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. If painting over porous surfaces, apply a suitable primer first to ensure even color saturation. Stir the paint thoroughly before use. When cleaning, avoid harsh scrubbing, as the dead matt finish is porous and prone to burnishing; instead, gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth if absolutely necessary. Store in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out between uses.
