Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper preparation and care ensure the best results and longevity for your painted surfaces.
Setup
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the wood or metal surface is clean, dry, and free from loose particles, grease, or rust. For previously painted surfaces, ensure they are sound; lightly sand glossy surfaces to provide a key for adhesion.
- Stirring: Before use, stir the paint thoroughly to ensure an even consistency and color.
- Ventilation: As this is a solvent-based paint with high VOC content, ensure the area is well-ventilated during application and drying. Open windows and doors.
Compatibility
- Surfaces: Compatible with interior and exterior wood and metal surfaces, including radiators.
- Finishes: Designed to complement other Dulux finishes, especially alongside Silk or Wipe Clean Matt paints on walls for a coordinated look.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning Painted Surfaces: The finish is wipeable, meaning you can gently clean the painted surface with a damp cloth to remove marks or dirt.
- Brush Cleaning: As a solvent-based paint, clean brushes immediately after use with a suitable white spirit or brush cleaner.
- Storage: Store the tin in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed.
Safety Information
- Flammable: Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames, and other ignition sources. No smoking.
- Allergic Reaction: May cause an allergic reaction. Wear appropriate protective gloves.
- Keep Out of Reach of Children: Always store safely and ensure children do not have access to the paint.
- Read Instructions: Always read the full instructions and safety data sheet on the tin before use.
