Dulux Weathershield Celtic Cream Satinwood Exterior Metal & Wood Paint, 750Ml Tin

This paint is specifically designed for exterior wood and metal surfaces, such as doors, window frames, garden furniture, and railings.

A 750ml tin typically covers up to 18 m² on average, though actual coverage may vary depending on surface porosity, texture, and application technique.

For the best finish and full 10-year weather protection, two coats are recommended. You can recoat after just 6 hours, thanks to its quick-drying formula.

Yes, this paint is water-based and has minimal VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), making it a safer and more environmentally conscious choice for use around your home.

The 10-year guarantee applies provided the surfaces are in good condition before application. Proper surface preparation, including cleaning, drying, and repairing any damage, is crucial for optimal adhesion and durability.

The product description specifies application with a brush for optimal results. While other methods might be technically possible, a brush is recommended to achieve the intended finish and performance.

Since it's a water-based paint, you can clean your brushes immediately after use with clean water.

Ensure adequate ventilation and suitable ambient temperature (typically above 10°C). High humidity or low temperatures can significantly extend drying times. Apply thin, even coats to prevent delayed drying.

Confirm that the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, smooth). Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before and during application. Apply coats evenly, avoiding over-brushing. Very porous surfaces might require a suitable primer or an additional thin coat to achieve an even finish.

While the paint is mould resistant, extreme environmental conditions or pre-existing mould spores deeply embedded in the substrate before painting can still lead to mould growth. Thoroughly clean the surface with a fungicidal wash and allow it to dry completely before any repainting to address underlying issues.
