Product Information
Full details
Designed for professional decorators and DIY enthusiasts alike, the Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt Paint in Grey is an ideal solution for those seeking a sophisticated, flat finish on interior walls and ceilings. Its primary benefit is high-opacity coverage that efficiently masks surface imperfections and previous paint layers, reducing the number of coats required for a pristine look. Users should note that as this is a custom-mixed product, it is non-returnable and non-refundable, so it is essential to double-check color requirements before ordering.

FAQs
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
This paint is designed for general interior walls and ceilings. It is not specifically formulated for high-humidity areas like bathrooms where steam is constant.
How many coats do I need?
Thanks to its high opacity, one to two coats are typically sufficient for most surfaces, though this may vary depending on the underlying color.
Is this paint washable?
As a matt paint, it is durable but not 'scrubbable'. Use a damp, soft cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt.
Can I return this if I choose the wrong color?
No, because this product is mixed to order specifically for your requirements, it cannot be returned or refunded.
What is the best way to apply this paint?
For best results, use a high-quality roller for large areas and a synthetic brush for edges and corners.
How long until I can recoat?
Under normal conditions, you can typically apply a second coat after 2 to 4 hours.
Troubleshooting
Paint is showing brush marks
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to tack up.
Paint is not covering the previous color
Check that the surface is fully prepared and free of grease. If the previous color is very dark, apply a high-quality white primer first.
Surface looks patchy after drying
This is often due to uneven roller pressure or 'holidays' during the application. Apply an additional thin, even coat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before applying the paint, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If the wall is new or porous, applying a primer or mist coat is recommended for optimal adhesion. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed. For maintenance, keep the area ventilated during application and drying to assist with curing. While this paint is durable, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners on the matt finish, as this may leave marks; use a slightly damp, soft cloth for gentle spot cleaning if necessary.
