FAQs
How much paint will I need?
Coverage depends on the surface and application method. The paint tin will provide coverage details per liter.
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
While suitable for most interior spaces, ensure the bathroom is well-ventilated to avoid moisture issues. Consider a moisture-resistant primer.
How long does it take to dry?
Drying times vary. Check the paint tin for specific drying information. Typically, allow several hours between coats.
How do I clean my brushes and rollers?
Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for best results.
Can I touch up the paint later?
Yes, but ensure the surface is clean before touching up. Blend the touch-up area with the existing paint for best results.
What kind of primer should I use?
Use a primer specifically designed for interior walls. Follow the primer's instructions for application and drying times.
Is this paint washable?
Yes, the paint is washable. Clean spills and marks with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
Uneven finish or streaks
Ensure even application, avoid over-brushing, and use a good quality roller or brush. Multiple thin coats usually give better results than one thick coat.
Poor coverage
Make sure you've applied a primer and consider a second coat. Ensure paint is properly mixed before application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose paint, grease, or dirt. Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler and sand smooth.
- Priming: Use an appropriate primer for the surface to be painted to improve adhesion and coverage, especially on previously painted surfaces or areas with stains.
- Application: Apply two coats of Dulux Heritage Violet Night, allowing sufficient drying time between coats (as indicated on the paint tin).
- Tools: Use a brush or roller designed for emulsion paints. A roller will generally provide a more even finish.
- Compatibility: This paint is suitable for use on most interior wall surfaces, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces. Always test the paint in an inconspicuous area if applying over a new surface.
- Care: Clean spills and marks with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the velvet matt finish.
