FAQs

What surfaces is Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt suitable for?

It is suitable for interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, masonry, wallpaper, and previously painted surfaces.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, please be aware that this product is mixed to order, so it cannot be returned or refunded.

How many coats will I need?

Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt offers excellent coverage and often requires fewer coats than standard emulsions. The exact number of coats will depend on the existing color and condition of the surface, but typically 2 coats are sufficient for good coverage.

How should I clean my painted walls?

Clean gently with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing to protect the matt finish.

Is this paint suitable for high-moisture areas like bathrooms?

This is a vinyl matt emulsion, which is generally suitable for most interior walls and ceilings. For very high-moisture areas, a specialized bathroom paint might be more appropriate.

What is the drying time?

The paint dries quickly, allowing for recoating usually within a few hours. Refer to the product tin for specific drying times.

What is the guarantee period?

The product comes with a 6-month guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or thin.

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, a small amount of clean water (typically no more than 5-10%) can be added to achieve the desired consistency for application, but avoid over-thinning.

Uneven color or patchy finish.

Ensure the paint has been stirred well before and during use. Apply paint evenly using consistent brush or roller strokes. Ensure the previous surface color is adequately covered, applying an additional coat if necessary.

Brush marks or roller marks are visible.

Use a high-quality brush or roller suitable for emulsion paints. Apply paint in a consistent direction (e.g., 'cutting in' with a brush and 'rolling on' with a roller). Avoid overworking the paint as it begins to dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
