FAQs

What surfaces can I use Valspar Trade Tough on?

It is suitable for interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces.

How many coats of paint are needed?

Two thin coats are generally recommended for optimal coverage and durability.

How do I clean up the paint?

Clean up spills immediately with a damp cloth. Wash brushes and rollers with water.

Is priming necessary?

Priming is typically not required unless painting over a glossy or dark surface, or on new surfaces.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

The quick-drying formula allows for faster drying times, but always refer to the product label for specific instructions.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While the paint is moisture-resistant, it's not specifically designed for high-humidity environments. Ensure proper ventilation.

How do I store leftover paint?

Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place. Avoid extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not covering the surface evenly.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared. Apply a second coat of paint.

Paint is taking too long to dry.

Ensure adequate ventilation and a suitable room temperature.

Paint is showing brush marks.

Use a high-quality brush or roller. Apply the paint in thin, even coats.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick drying time saves time on projects.
  • The low splatter formula reduces mess and makes cleanup easier.
  • Stain resistance helps maintain the paint's appearance over time.
  • High opacity ensures excellent coverage, potentially reducing the number of coats needed.

Cons

  • Requires proper surface preparation for optimal results.
  • May require more than one coat for very dark or bold colours.
  • Colour accuracy can vary slightly depending on the surface and lighting conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from loose paint, dirt, and grease. Fill any holes or cracks with a suitable filler and sand smooth.
  2. Priming: If painting over a previously painted surface, priming is typically not required unless the existing paint is glossy or dark. For new surfaces, a primer may be necessary for better adhesion and coverage.
  3. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply two thin coats, allowing the first coat to dry completely before applying the second.
  4. Compatibility: Valspar Trade Tough is compatible with most interior surfaces, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces. Check the product label for specific compatibility guidelines.
  5. Care: Clean up spills immediately with a damp cloth. For general cleaning, use a mild detergent and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the paint.
