Extended Product Information

FAQs

What type of finish does this paint have?

This is a `Velvet Matt` finish, which offers a soft, smooth, and low-sheen appearance that helps to mask minor surface imperfections.

Can this paint be used on exterior surfaces?

No, Dulux Heritage Quartz Velvet Matt Wall Paint is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings only.

How much area will 2.5 litres of paint cover?

Info needed: Specific coverage per litre is not provided. Typically, paint coverage varies based on surface porosity and application method. Consult the product label for precise coverage details once available.

How many coats are recommended?

For best results and full colour depth, two coats are generally recommended. More coats may be needed if painting over a very dark or uneven surface.

How do I clean walls painted with this product?

Gently wipe the painted surface with a soft, damp cloth to clean. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the delicate `velvet matt` finish.

What is the drying time between coats?

Info needed: Specific drying and recoat times are not provided. Always allow sufficient time for the first coat to dry completely before applying the second. Refer to the product's packaging for detailed instructions.

Is `Quartz Grey` a warm or cool grey?

Quartz Grey is described as a 'mid-tone mushroom', which typically suggests a warmer, more subtle grey with earthy undertones, making it a highly versatile and flexible neutral.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or brush/roller marks are visible.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (smooth and clean). Apply paint evenly, avoiding excessive pressure. Use high-quality brushes and rollers designed for matt emulsions. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Paint is not covering old colour adequately, even after two coats.

Ensure the previous surface was properly primed, especially if transitioning from a very dark to a lighter shade. Check that the paint was thoroughly stirred. Apply additional thin coats, allowing full drying time in between.

Colour appears different on the wall than expected from the sample.

Wall colour can be significantly influenced by lighting conditions (natural vs. artificial, warm vs. cool light) and surrounding colours. Always test a sample patch on your wall and observe it at different times of day before committing to the full room.

Paint is peeling or flaking after drying.

This often indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure walls are clean, dry, free of grease, dust, and loose material. For porous or chalky surfaces, a suitable primer or stabiliser should be applied first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care### Surface PreparationFor optimal results, ensure your walls and ceilings are clean, dry, and smooth before painting. Remove any loose paint, dust, or debris. Fill any holes or cracks, then sand smooth. For previously painted dark or uneven surfaces, or for new plaster, a suitable `primer` or `undercoat` is recommended to ensure uniform absorption and true colour rendition.### Application1. Stir Thoroughly: Before and during use, stir the paint well to ensure an even consistency and colour distribution.2. Application Tools: Use a high-quality roller for large areas and a good brush for edges and cutting-in.3. Apply Evenly: Apply the paint in thin, even coats. Avoid overloading your brush or roller to prevent drips and ensure a smooth `velvet matt` finish.4. Multiple Coats: Typically, two coats are recommended for full opacity and depth of colour. Allow adequate drying time between coats (Info needed: specific drying time).### CompatibilityThis paint is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings. It is not intended for use on exterior surfaces, floors, or high-traffic areas requiring a more durable, scrubbable finish.### Care and MaintenanceTo keep your painted surfaces looking their best:1. Cleaning: For minor marks, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the `velvet matt` finish and remove paint.2. Protection: Protect painted walls from excessive moisture and direct impacts to maintain their pristine appearance. Promptly address any spills or stains.
