Best suited for accent walls or decorative elements where a bold color statement is desired, this paint features a sophisticated umber undertone that adds depth to its bright character.

FAQs
Is New Lime No.149 suitable for high-traffic areas?
Yes, but ensure you select the appropriate finish for your project, such as the eggshell or gloss options, which provide better durability than the dead matt finish.
Does this paint require a specific primer?
Mylands recommends using their white primer and undercoat to achieve the most accurate color representation.
How many coats are typically needed?
Two coats are generally recommended for full opacity and depth of color, though this may vary based on the surface color being covered.
Can I use this on floors?
For flooring, please select the specific Decorative Floor Satin Paint variant designed for high-impact durability.
How should I store leftover paint?
Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight.
What is the difference between this and Primrose Hill No. 201?
New Lime No. 149 is a more intense, yellow-leaning version compared to the softer, more muted tones of Primrose Hill.
Troubleshooting
Color appears less vibrant than expected
This is often due to skipping the primer. Use a high-quality white primer and undercoat to improve the color payoff.
Uneven or streaky finish
Ensure you are using the correct tools and applying even, thin layers. Avoid over-brushing the paint once it begins to set.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. For the best results, use a high-quality white primer and undercoat to ensure the true, vibrant nature of the New Lime pigment comes through without being dulled by the wall color underneath. When painting, use professional-grade brushes or rollers to maintain an even coat. Once dried, the surface should be cleaned with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemical cleaners which may degrade the matte finish. Store any leftover paint in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent skinning or drying out.
