FAQs
What surfaces can I use Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt on?
This paint is suitable for interior walls and ceilings. Ensure the surface is properly prepared and clean before application.
How many coats do I need?
The paint offers excellent coverage and often requires fewer coats. For best results, two coats are typically recommended, but this may vary depending on the existing surface colour and condition.
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
While it can be used on interior walls, it's not specifically designed for high-moisture environments like bathrooms. For such areas, consider a paint with enhanced moisture resistance.
How do I clean my tools after use?
Clean brushes, rollers, and any other equipment immediately after use with water. Ensure all paint residue is removed.
Why can't I return this product?
This specific product is mixed to order in the 'Mallard Green' colour. Due to its custom nature, it cannot be returned or refunded once purchased.
What is the drying time?
Drying times can vary, but the paint is designed to dry relatively quickly. Allow sufficient time for the first coat to dry before applying a second coat.
Troubleshooting
Paint not covering well
Ensure the surface is properly prepared and that the paint has been stirred thoroughly. Apply a second coat if necessary, ensuring adequate drying time between coats.
Uneven finish or brush marks visible
Apply paint with even, consistent strokes. Avoid over-spreading. Ensure you are not applying too much paint at once. Let the paint dry completely to assess the final finish.
Paint is too thick
Check if the paint has been stored correctly. While this paint is designed for direct application, very slight thinning with water may be permissible for specific application methods, but always refer to product guidelines or test first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth. Stir the paint thoroughly before use.
Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls and ceilings. Not recommended for high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens unless specifically prepared. Test on a small, inconspicuous area if unsure.
