Its primary benefit is excellent coverage that often requires fewer coats, saving time and effort. A key caveat is that this product is mixed to order and therefore cannot be returned or refunded.

FAQs

Is this paint washable?

Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt provides a flat matt finish that can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. However, it is not a highly scrubbable paint and is best suited for areas with normal levels of wear and tear, not high-moisture or high-traffic zones.

How many coats do I need?

The number of coats depends on the surface and the original colour. This paint offers excellent coverage and often requires fewer coats than standard emulsions, typically two coats for best results, especially over darker colours or significant imperfections.

Can I return this paint if I change my mind?

No, this product is mixed to order to your specific colour choice. Therefore, it cannot be returned or refunded once purchased, unless faulty.

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

It is designed for interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, masonry, and previously painted surfaces that are in good condition.

How should I prepare the surface before painting?

The surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose paint. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth if necessary. Ensure the surface is sound before application.

What is the drying time?

The paint dries relatively quickly. You can usually re-coat after 2-4 hours, depending on the ambient temperature and humidity.

What is the weight and dimensions of the container?

The container dimensions are H:14 x W:14 x D:14 cm, and it weighs 3.0 kg.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or streaky

Ensure the paint is stirred thoroughly. If still too thick, a very small amount of clean water (usually no more than 5-10%) can be added and mixed well. Avoid over-thinning.

Uneven coverage or visible brush/roller marks

Apply paint in even coats, maintaining a wet edge to avoid lap marks. Ensure the surface is properly prepared and that you are using the correct application technique for the chosen tool (brush or roller).

Colour does not match expectations

Colours can appear different under various lighting conditions and on different screen displays. Check the physical paint can for the correct shade name and code. Note that this product is mixed to order and is non-refundable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High coverage reduces the number of coats needed.
  • Matt finish effectively hides imperfections.
  • Easy and clean application.
  • Quick drying time speeds up projects.
  • Water-based formula for easier cleanup.

Cons

  • Mixed to order and non-refundable.
  • Specific shade (Quartz Grey) may not suit all aesthetic preferences.
  • May not be suitable for high-moisture areas where a scrubbable finish is required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and any loose material. If necessary, prepare the surface by filling any holes or cracks and sanding smooth. Stir the paint thoroughly before use.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls and ceilings. It is a water-based emulsion, generally compatible with most primed surfaces. Avoid using on surfaces intended for high-traffic or high-moisture areas where a more durable, washable paint might be needed.

Care: Clean brushes, rollers, and spills immediately after use with water. For general maintenance of the painted surface, wipe gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing, as the vinyl matt finish is not designed for heavy abrasion.
