This 5L Dulux Trade Soft Muslin Vinyl Matt Paint is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professional decorators looking for a reliable and easy-to-apply paint for interior walls and ceilings. Its key benefit is providing excellent coverage that often requires fewer coats, saving time and effort. A potential caveat is that the flat matt finish, while good at hiding imperfections, may not be as durable or washable as gloss or satin finishes in high-traffic areas.

This paint provides a flat matt finish, which is non-reflective and helps to hide surface imperfections.
While it can be used on walls in a bathroom, the flat matt finish is not as resistant to moisture and cleaning as specialist bathroom paints. Ensure good ventilation and consider using a primer or sealant if moisture is a significant concern.
The paint offers excellent coverage and often requires fewer coats than standard paints. Typically, two coats are sufficient for good opacity, but this can vary depending on the surface and the previous colour.
Clean brushes, rollers, and any spills immediately after use with warm water and a mild detergent.
The paint dries quickly, allowing for re-coating usually within a few hours. Refer to the product packaging for specific drying times.
It is not recommended to mix this water-based emulsion with solvent-based paints or paints from different manufacturers, as this can affect performance and finish.
The dimensions are approximately H:24 x W:19 x D:19 cm and it weighs 6.0 kg.
Ensure the surface was properly prepared and primed if necessary. Apply a second coat after the first has fully dried. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during application.
Ensure you are using the correct application technique for the tool. Apply paint evenly and avoid overworking it. Use a high-quality brush or roller for a smoother finish. Ensure adequate lighting to see coverage.
This paint is typically ready to use. If it seems too thick, ensure it has been stirred thoroughly. Avoid adding excessive amounts of water, as this can compromise the finish and coverage. If it seems too thin, ensure the paint has not been contaminated or stored improperly.
Colour perception can change slightly as paint dries. Ensure you have a large enough sample area painted and dried before committing to the whole room. Ensure all paint used in the room comes from the same batch if possible.
Setup: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose paint. Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable filler and allow to dry. If painting over previously painted surfaces, a light sanding may be required for optimal adhesion. For best results on new plaster or previously painted surfaces in poor condition, apply a suitable primer before using the vinyl matt paint.
Compatibility: This is a water-based emulsion paint suitable for interior walls and ceilings. It is compatible with most standard interior paint application tools, such as brushes, rollers, and sprayers. It is not recommended for use on surfaces that will be subject to heavy wear, abrasion, or high moisture levels, such as kitchen worktops or exterior walls.
Care: Store the paint in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use. After use, clean brushes, rollers, and any spills immediately with warm water and detergent. Dried paint can be more difficult to remove.
