Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms?

While it is durable and washable, it is primarily intended for living areas, bedrooms, and hallways. For high-humidity environments, consult technical data regarding moisture resistance.

Does the marble content make the paint rough?

No, the crushed marble provides a subtle depth and a refined matte texture rather than a gritty or rough feel.

How many coats are typically needed?

Due to the depth of the Downing Street 10 pigment, two full coats are usually recommended for a professional, solid finish.

Is this paint environmentally friendly?

Yes, it is a low VOC, water-based formula, making it a more eco-conscious choice for home interiors.

Can I use this on floors?

No, this specific emulsion is for walls and ceilings. Mylands offers a specific Decorative Floor Satin paint for flooring projects.

How should I store leftover paint?

Ensure the lid is tightly sealed and store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and frost.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or "flashing"

Ensure the surface was adequately primed and that the paint was mixed thoroughly before application.

Visible roller marks

Apply using a high-quality medium-pile roller and ensure you maintain a 'wet edge' while painting.

Paint rubbing off during cleaning

Allow the paint to fully cure for at least 7-14 days before attempting to wash the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying the Marble Matt Emulsion, ensure that your walls are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over a light or porous color, a high-quality primer is recommended to ensure the richness of the black pigment is achieved with fewer coats. Use a professional-grade synthetic brush or a medium-pile roller for optimal coverage. Clean tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water. For ongoing care, the washable nature of the paint means light marks can be wiped away with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the matte finish over time.
