FAQs

What surfaces can Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt be used on?

It is suitable for most interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, plasterboard, wallpaper (blown vinyl or paper-based), and previously painted surfaces.

How many coats of paint are typically needed?

The paint offers high opacity and excellent coverage, often requiring only one or two coats, depending on the previous colour and surface condition.

Can this paint be used in a kitchen or bathroom?

While it can be used on walls and ceilings in kitchens and bathrooms, it is not specifically formulated for high-moisture environments. For areas prone to condensation, consider a more specialized paint.

How long does the paint take to dry?

The paint dries quickly, typically allowing for recoating in 2-4 hours under normal conditions.

What is the coverage rate of this paint?

Coverage is approximately 12-15 square meters per litre, but this can vary based on surface texture and absorbency.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, this product is mixed to order and therefore cannot be returned or refunded.

How should I clean my tools after use?

Clean brushes, rollers, and other equipment with water immediately after finishing your painting.

Troubleshooting

Uneven colour coverage

Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred before and during application. Apply in thin, even coats and maintain a wet edge to avoid lap marks. Check for surface porosity issues that may require priming.

Paint not adhering well

Verify the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or mould. Ensure the surface is sound and not peeling. Apply a suitable primer if painting over difficult surfaces or new plaster.

Matt finish appears shiny or streaky

This can occur from over-brushing or applying too thickly. Ensure consistent application technique and avoid working the paint too much. Check that rollers are appropriate for matt emulsions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a professional, smooth finish.
  • Excellent coverage reduces the number of coats needed.
  • Easy to apply with minimal mess.
  • Quick drying time speeds up decorating projects.
  • Effective at hiding minor surface imperfections.

Cons

  • Mixed to order, therefore non-refundable and non-returnable.
  • Yellow ('Lemon Pie') colour may not suit all interior design schemes.
  • Water-based emulsion, not suitable for high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens without appropriate preparation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. For best results, apply a suitable primer to new or previously painted surfaces. Stir the paint thoroughly before use.

Compatibility: Suitable for all normal interior wall and ceiling surfaces. Not recommended for use in high-moisture environments or on surfaces requiring a scrubbable finish. Always test on an inconspicuous area if unsure.

Care: Clean spills and brushes immediately after use with water. For routine cleaning of the painted surface, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, as this can damage the matt finish.
