Dulux Heritage Paint - Maritime Teal

Info needed: Typical coverage for premium matt paints is around 13-16 square meters per litre per coat, so a 2.5L tin would cover approximately 32.5-40 square meters with one coat. Always check the specific product label for precise coverage.

For optimal depth of colour and a consistent velvet matt finish, two coats are generally recommended. On pre-primed surfaces or if covering a very similar light colour, one coat might suffice, but two will provide the best result.

Info needed: Typically, Dulux Heritage paints are touch dry in 2-4 hours and can be recoated after 4-6 hours. Always refer to the specific instructions on the paint tin for precise drying and recoat times.

While this paint offers a beautiful finish, for high-humidity areas like bathrooms and kitchens, it's generally recommended to use a paint specifically formulated with moisture and mould resistance. This product is best suited for living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas.

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly until all paint residue is removed, then reshape and allow to dry.

While not always strictly necessary on previously painted, sound surfaces of a similar colour, applying a good quality primer (especially on new plaster, patched areas, or when making a significant colour change) will ensure better adhesion, truer colour, and a more even finish.

Ensure the surface is properly prepped and primed. Apply paint evenly using a high-quality roller or brush, avoiding excessive pressure. Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next.

Paint colours can vary slightly based on lighting and underlying wall colour. Always use a primer, especially on dark or unevenly coloured walls. Ensure proper room lighting when evaluating the colour.

This is often due to insufficient coats or a dark existing colour. Apply a suitable primer first, then apply at least two full coats of Dulux Heritage paint, allowing adequate drying time between coats.
