Mylands Mortlake Red 290 is a sophisticated, pale, dusty terracotta red designed for homeowners and designers seeking a timeless, relaxed aesthetic with a modern edge. Originating from the iconic 1920s and 1930s colour books of Thomas Parson, this hue provides a muted yet vibrant finish that works beautifully as a standout accent colour. While it offers exceptional character and heritage charm, users should note that as a specific archival tone, surface preparation is critical to achieving the intended depth of colour.

Yes, Mortlake Red 290 is available in various finishes, including Multi-Surface Gloss, Satin, and Eggshell.
Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soapy water if necessary; avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing pads.
While not always mandatory, a primer is highly recommended to ensure colour accuracy and adhesion, especially on porous or previously dark surfaces.
Ensure the surface is properly primed and use a high-quality roller or brush to maintain a 'wet edge' while applying.
Ensure the surface has been lightly sanded and cleaned of all debris, dust, and grease before application.
Before starting, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. If you are painting over a drastically different colour, apply a compatible primer to ensure the trueness of the Mortlake Red pigment. For best results, use high-quality brushes or rollers suitable for the specific paint finish selected (Eggshell, Satin, or Gloss). Once painted, clean surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive chemicals that might dull the finish of the paint. Store remaining paint in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent skinning.
