FAQs

What type of surfaces is Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt suitable for?

It is suitable for all normal interior wall and ceiling surfaces, including plaster, plasterboard, and previously decorated surfaces.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it can be used on ceilings, it's generally recommended for standard interior walls. For high-moisture areas like bathrooms, a specialized bathroom paint or a high-quality sealant over this paint might be more appropriate.

How many coats should I apply?

For best results and optimal coverage, two coats are generally recommended, although the high opacity may mean fewer coats are needed for certain situations.

How do I clean my tools after using this paint?

Clean brushes, rollers, and any other equipment with water immediately after use.

Can this paint be tinted to other colours?

This product is a specific Grey shade mixed to order. It is not designed for further tinting.

What is the drying time?

The paint dries quickly, allowing for recoating after a suitable period, typically a few hours depending on conditions. Refer to the product packaging for specific drying times.

What does 'high opacity' mean?

High opacity means the paint has excellent hiding power, allowing it to cover underlying colours or imperfections effectively, often in fewer coats.

Troubleshooting

Uneven coverage or brush marks visible

Ensure the paint is stirred thoroughly. Apply in even coats, maintaining a wet edge to avoid lap marks. Check for adequate paint on the roller or brush.

Paint not adhering well to the surface

Surface may not have been adequately prepared. Ensure it is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Apply a suitable primer if painting over problematic surfaces or new plaster.

Colour appears different after drying

Lighting conditions can affect colour perception. Allow the paint to dry completely before assessing the final colour. Ensure consistent application across the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth. Apply a suitable primer if necessary, especially on new or previously painted surfaces.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply evenly using a brush, roller, or spray. For best results, apply two coats, allowing adequate drying time between coats.

Compatibility: Suitable for use on all normal interior wall and ceiling surfaces, including plaster, plasterboard, and previously decorated surfaces. Not recommended for high-moisture environments without appropriate preparation.

Care: Clean brushes, rollers, and equipment with water immediately after use. Wipe down walls with a clean, damp cloth if minor marks occur. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
