FAQs

Can this paint be used on exterior surfaces?

This paint is specifically formulated for interior woodwork, trim, and metal surfaces and is not recommended for exterior use.

Do I absolutely need a primer?

While it is technically possible to paint without, using the recommended Pink Primer and Undercoat is essential for an even surface and maximum durability.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Consult the specific instructions on the paint tin, but generally, this formula can be cleaned up using appropriate solvents or water as indicated by the product's technical data sheet.

Is this a matte or glossy paint?

It is an eggshell finish, which sits between matte and gloss, providing a soft, sophisticated sheen that is durable and easy to clean.

Is the colour consistent with other Mylands pinks?

This paint is a distinct blend of red and magenta, specifically designed to be a darker alternative to other lighter pink shades in the Mylands range.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well to the surface.

Ensure the surface was sanded to provide a mechanical key and verify that the Mylands Pink Primer and Undercoat was applied first.

Visible brush marks or streaks.

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and do not over-work the paint while it is drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best possible results, surface preparation is vital. Before application, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease.

  1. Preparation: Sand down glossy surfaces to provide a 'key' for the paint to adhere to.
  2. Priming: It is highly recommended to use the Mylands Pink Primer and Undercoat. This product evens out the surface and improves long-term paint adhesion.
  3. Application: Apply with a high-quality brush or roller designed for eggshell finishes for a smooth, streak-free result.
  4. Maintenance: Once fully cured, the surface can be gently wiped down with a damp cloth if necessary, though harsh chemicals should be avoided to protect the finish.
