FAQs
Is Blackout 41 truly black?
It is an intriguing dark grey with subtle warm tones, which provides a near-black appearance depending on the lighting conditions in your room.
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
While it is durable, this specific Marble Matt Emulsion is optimized for living areas. For high-humidity bathrooms, we recommend consulting our technical team regarding specific moisture-resistant topcoats.
How many coats should I apply?
For best results, we typically recommend two full coats to ensure deep, uniform color and maximum durability.
Is this paint environmentally friendly?
Yes, it is a water-based paint with low VOC content, making it safer and more environmentally responsible than traditional solvent-based paints.
Can I use this on furniture?
This emulsion is formulated for walls and ceilings. For furniture, please use the Mylands Multi-Surface paints, which are specifically designed to adhere to wood and metal.
How do I store leftover paint?
Seal the tin tightly and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Uneven color or 'flashing' on the wall
This is often caused by unequal absorption. Ensure the surface is properly primed or that a mist coat has been applied to thirsty drywall.
Paint feels sticky or doesn't dry properly
Check the room humidity and temperature. If it is too cold or damp, the drying process will be significantly delayed. Use a dehumidifier if necessary.
Visible brush or roller marks
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic tool and working with a wet edge. Avoid over-brushing the paint as it begins to set.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose debris. Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler and sand smooth. If the wall is porous, a mist coat may be required.
Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply in a consistent temperature (ideally between 10°C and 25°C). Use a high-quality roller for large areas and a brush for cutting in.
Compatibility: This paint is intended for use on interior walls and ceilings. For trim, cabinetry, or furniture, consider Mylands multi-surface eggshell or dead matt variants to ensure proper adhesion and finish durability.
Care: Allow the paint to cure for at least 7-14 days before attempting any wet cleaning. For routine maintenance, use a soft, damp microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution if necessary; avoid abrasive scrubbing sponges that can damage the matt finish.
