Product Information

Full details

Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt Paint in Raspberry Diva is ideal for professional decorators and homeowners seeking a vibrant, high-opacity finish for interior walls and ceilings. This emulsion excels at masking surface imperfections with its signature flat matt appearance, making it perfect for older or uneven plaster. While it provides excellent coverage and ease of application, users should be aware that this specific shade is custom-mixed to order and is non-returnable, so careful planning of your paint volume is essential.

FAQs

Can I use this paint in a kitchen or bathroom?

While it is a durable trade-grade paint, it is a standard matt finish and may not withstand the high humidity and heavy cleaning required in bathrooms or kitchens as well as a dedicated kitchen/bathroom paint.

How many square meters will 5L cover?

Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt typically covers approximately 17 square meters per liter, meaning a 5L tin should cover roughly 85 square meters in a single coat, depending on surface porosity.

Do I need a primer?

On previously painted surfaces in good condition, a primer is not usually required. However, for porous surfaces like new plaster, a mist coat is necessary.

How long should I wait between coats?

Typically, you should wait 2-4 hours between coats, though this can vary based on the humidity and temperature of the room.

Is Raspberry Diva a dark color?

Raspberry Diva is a deep, vibrant red shade. Due to its intensity, ensure you allow for the recommended number of coats to achieve full color depth.

Troubleshooting

Paint looks streaky or uneven

Ensure you are using a quality roller sleeve and maintain a 'wet edge' by working in manageable sections.

Paint is not sticking to the wall

The surface may be greasy or dusty. Clean the substrate thoroughly with sugar soap and allow it to dry completely before reapplying.

Visible roller marks

You may be using too much pressure or the paint is drying too quickly. Ensure proper room temperature and use a lighter touch with the roller.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior coverage on interior walls and ceilings
  • Effective at masking surface imperfections
  • Smooth, easy-to-apply consistency
  • Quick drying time for faster project turnaround
  • Sophisticated, vibrant Raspberry Diva pigment

Cons

  • Custom mixed-to-order product is non-refundable
  • Flat matt finishes can be more difficult to scrub than higher-sheen paints
  • Requires professional-grade preparation for optimal adherence

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure your walls are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. If the wall is new plaster, it is essential to apply a 'mist coat' (a thinned layer of emulsion) first to prevent the wall from absorbing too much moisture from the topcoats.

Compatibility: This paint is compatible with standard plaster, masonry, and previously painted interior surfaces.

Care: Store the paint in a cool, dry place, ensuring the lid is airtight to prevent skinning. If you have leftover paint, clean the rim of the 5L tin thoroughly before closing it to ensure a perfect seal for future touch-ups. Avoid cleaning the dried paint surface with harsh abrasive chemicals; a damp cloth or soft sponge with mild detergent is usually sufficient for maintenance.
