Product Information

Full details

Chambers Gate No.85 by Mylands is a sophisticated, neutral grey paint designed for homeowners and professionals looking for a timeless finish on interior woodwork and metal. Featuring subtle undertones of yellow and violet, it offers an elegant, understated aesthetic suitable for everything from trim to metal fixtures. While it provides excellent coverage and a durable, scuff-resistant surface, users should ensure the substrate is properly prepped, as it performs best when applied to clean, primed surfaces.

FAQs

Is Chambers Gate No.85 suitable for outdoor use?

No, this specific product is formulated exclusively for interior applications.

Does this paint require a primer?

While it has excellent coverage, we recommend using a suitable primer on raw wood or metal for the best long-term results.

How long does it take to dry?

It is a quick-drying formula, though exact times vary based on humidity and temperature. Always check for touch-dry status before recoating.

Can I use this on floors?

This specific Eggshell finish is designed for wood and metal trim. For flooring, we recommend using the dedicated Mylands Decorative Floor Satin Paint.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Clean brushes and equipment with water immediately after application while the paint is still wet.

Troubleshooting

Paint is dripping or running during application

Reduce the amount of paint loaded onto the brush or roller and apply thinner, more even coats.

Poor adhesion to the surface

Ensure the surface was sanded, cleaned, and degreased properly; re-prime if the surface is porous.

Visible brush strokes

Use a high-quality synthetic brush and ensure the paint is not being over-worked as it begins to dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent adhesion to multiple substrates like wood and metal
  • Sophisticated, timeless grey aesthetic
  • High resistance to scuffs and household wear
  • Easy to maintain with a washable finish
  • Smooth, professional-grade application

Cons

  • Requires careful surface preparation for best adhesion
  • Limited to interior use only
  • May require multiple coats for dark surface coverage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure all surfaces are dry, clean, and free of dust, grease, or loose flaking paint. If applying over previously painted surfaces, lightly sand the area to provide a key for the new coat. Use high-quality synthetic brushes or a fine-nap roller for an even finish. After painting, allow the surface to cure fully before attempting to wash it; avoid harsh chemicals when cleaning, opting instead for a soft, damp cloth. Always store the tin in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent skinning.
