Mellow Yellow
- Durable & easy to apply
- Highest quality pigment
- Odourless & low VOC
- Vegan & cruelty free
Our Mellow Yellow matt emulsion paint colour is our wise ol' hue, the elder of all yellows in the YesColours paint colour palette. It has a touch more red which possesses this saffron-like warmth. It’s a great colour choice for furniture, zoning areas or drenching small spaces. Bonus points: it’s working really well with heritage or contemporary schemes. It’s mature, grounded but still vibrant, in its own muted way.
This yellow shade reminds us of our condiment staple; English mustard, the Californian native; yellow yarrow and the sweet luscious mango. This balmy colour can be seen painted outside many a home in Burano, Italy as well as in the glow of the sun shining upon Amer Fort in Rajasthan, standing proudly on the hill of Maota Lake.
Note: Please ensure that when using this colour it's applied evenly onto a prepped wall, as this colour may need an additional coat for the perfect finish.

Prep
If you notice any unevenness on your wall's surface, a quick sanding may be necessary before painting. When painting freshly plastered walls or other absorbent surfaces, priming is crucial to ensure proper adhesion of the paint. You can either mist coat dry plastered walls or use a plaster primer, typically with a matt emulsion texture.
