FAQs

Is this paint suitable for kitchens or bathrooms?

While it can be used on walls in these areas, the Dead Matt finish is not as moisture-resistant as gloss or eggshell; it is recommended to use in low-humidity interior rooms.

Can I use this on floors?

No, this is a wall and interior surface paint. For flooring, use the specific Mylands Decorative Floor Satin Paint.

Does the colour look more yellow or white?

It is an off-white that appears bright and clean but has subtle yellow and umber undertones that provide warmth rather than a clinical white look.

How do I clean the paint off my brushes?

Standard cleaning procedures for water-based paints apply; rinse brushes thoroughly in warm soapy water immediately after use.

Do I need to apply a primer?

It is highly recommended to use a primer on new or porous surfaces to ensure the best durability and colour accuracy.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or patches

Ensure the surface was properly primed and that you are using a consistent application method with a high-quality roller or brush.

Visible brush strokes

Apply the paint in thin, even coats, and avoid overworking the paint once it has begun to dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated non-reflective finish
  • Rich, warm undertones
  • Versatile application for interior surfaces
  • High-quality, professional-grade coverage

Cons

  • Dead Matt finish is less resistant to scrubbing than gloss or satin
  • Requires careful preparation of surfaces for best results
  • Not intended for heavy-duty exterior use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over raw plaster or porous surfaces, use a suitable primer to ensure even absorption. For previously painted surfaces, lightly sand the area to provide a key for the new coat. Use a high-quality brush or roller to ensure an even application. To maintain the finish, avoid aggressive scrubbing; instead, gently wipe surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth if cleaning is necessary. Always store the tin in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
