FAQs

What kind of finish does this paint provide?

This paint provides a flat matt finish, which is non-reflective and helps to hide imperfections on the surface.

Can this paint be used in a bathroom?

While suitable for general interior walls and ceilings, it's not specifically formulated for high-moisture areas like bathrooms. For such areas, consider a paint with higher durability or moisture resistance, or ensure adequate ventilation and surface preparation.

How many coats do I need?

The paint offers excellent coverage and often requires fewer coats than standard paints, typically around two coats for best results, depending on the existing colour and surface condition.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, this product is mixed to order, which means it cannot be returned or refunded once purchased.

What colours are available?

This specific product is in the Grey colour family, with the shade 'Misty Mirror'. Please refer to the product listing for other available colours in the Dulux Trade range.

Is this paint suitable for new plaster?

For new plaster, it is recommended to use a suitable primer before applying this paint to ensure good adhesion and an even finish.

Troubleshooting

Paint not covering evenly

Ensure the surface is properly prepared and that the paint is stirred thoroughly. Apply paint in consistent strokes and consider a primer if the surface is highly absorbent.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Apply paint with a consistent technique, using even strokes. Avoid overworking the paint, and ensure you are using the correct type of brush or roller for a vinyl matt finish.

Paint is too thick to apply

Stir the paint well. If necessary, a very small amount of water can be added (check manufacturer guidelines, typically <5%) for easier application, but this may affect coverage.

Surface imperfections are still visible

The flat matt finish helps disguise minor imperfections. For significant damage, deeper filling and sanding may be required before painting for a truly smooth appearance.

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 with appropriate filler and allow to dry.

Compatibility:

Suitable for most interior walls and ceilings. For previously painted surfaces, ensure the existing paint is sound and in good condition. Not recommended for use in high-moisture environments without additional protective measures. Apply a suitable primer if painting over wallpaper or very porous surfaces.

Care:

  • Stir the paint thoroughly before use.
  • Apply using a brush or roller.
  • For best results, apply two coats.
  • Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water.
  • Store paint in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
