FAQs

What surfaces can I use Dulux Heritage Eggshell on?

This paint is specifically designed for interior wood and metal surfaces.

How many coats of paint should I apply?

For best results and optimal coverage, applying two coats is recommended.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Drying times can vary, but typically allow a few hours between coats. Always refer to the product tin for specific drying instructions.

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While durable, this specific formulation is not designed for high-moisture environments. For bathrooms, consider a specialized bathroom paint or ensure adequate ventilation and a suitable protective topcoat.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Clean all brushes and equipment immediately after use with water.

Does this paint yellow over time?

No, this paint is formulated to be non-yellowing, maintaining its True White shade.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well or is peeling.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared, clean, dry, and free from contaminants. A suitable primer may be required for bare or previously painted surfaces.

Brush marks are visible.

Ensure the paint is applied evenly with light, consistent strokes. Use a good quality brush and do not overwork the paint. Allow the paint to level properly before drying.

Uneven colour or coverage.

Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before and during application. Apply a second coat as recommended, ensuring even application across the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to improve adhesion. If painting new or bare wood, apply a suitable primer. For metal surfaces, use a dedicated metal primer.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply two coats using a good quality brush, roller, or spray gun. Allow adequate drying time between coats (check product tin for specific times, typically a few hours).

Compatibility: Suitable for interior wood and metal. Not recommended for exterior use or high-moisture areas like bathrooms without additional protective coatings.

Care: Clean brushes and equipment immediately after use with water. For cleaning decorated surfaces, use a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
