Dulux Gloss Metal & Wood Paint - Green - 750Ml

This paint is specifically designed for use on both wood and metal surfaces, making it versatile for various indoor and outdoor projects.

For optimal durability, coverage, and the best finish, we recommend applying two coats of Dulux Proud Peacock Gloss Paint.

Each coat typically dries to the touch and can be recoated after 6 hours. Ensure good ventilation to assist with the drying process.

On average, one litre of Dulux Proud Peacock Gloss Paint covers approximately 16 square meters, though actual coverage may vary depending on surface porosity and application method.

Yes, its durable and long-lasting finish, coupled with added protection, makes it suitable for both interior and exterior wood and metal surfaces, offering good resistance to weathering.

Info needed: While this paint offers good coverage, for optimal adhesion, durability, and a superior finish, especially on new, bare, or highly porous wood and metal, refer to the product label or Dulux website for specific primer recommendations relevant to your surface type.

Clean brushes and tools immediately after use. Info needed: Refer to the specific instructions on the paint can, as gloss paints typically require a brush cleaner or white spirit for effective cleanup.

Ensure adequate ventilation in the painting area, as poor airflow can significantly extend drying times. Check the room temperature; paint dries best in moderate temperatures (typically 18-25°C). Avoid applying paint too thickly, as excessive layers will take longer to cure. Humidity can also affect drying; try to paint on a less humid day.

Poor surface preparation is often the cause. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth before painting. Apply thin, even coats, avoiding over-brushing which can pull paint away from areas. Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred before and during use to maintain consistent pigment distribution. If the surface is very porous, a primer might be needed (refer to product compatibility). Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Use a high-quality synthetic or natural bristle brush appropriate for gloss paints. Avoid applying too much pressure. Load the brush moderately and apply paint smoothly and evenly in one direction. Work quickly and avoid re-brushing areas that have already started to dry.

This usually indicates poor adhesion. Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, sanded (if necessary to create a 'key'), and completely dry before painting. Any grease, dirt, or loose old paint can prevent proper bonding. Applying paint in very cold conditions can also affect adhesion.
