Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering or peeling prematurely.

Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned, dry, and free from loose material before application. Old flaking paint should be removed. Consider using a suitable primer if the surface is highly porous or powdery.

Uneven finish or streaks after drying.

Ensure the paint is stirred well before and during application. Apply evenly with consistent pressure, avoiding overspreading. Allow sufficient drying time between coats and apply the recommended number of coats.

Mould or algae reappearing after painting.

While the paint contains fungicides, existing mould/algae must be completely removed and the area treated with a suitable fungicidal wash prior to painting to prevent regrowth from beneath the new paint layer.

Paint appears thin or coverage is poor.

Ensure sufficient paint is applied per coat. Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal opacity and durability. Avoid over-diluting the paint if instructions do not specify thinning.

Slow drying time.

Ensure application is done in suitable weather conditions (not too cold, humid, or in direct strong sunlight). Good ventilation can also aid drying, though this is an exterior paint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your Dulux Weathershield Masonry Paint involves proper preparation, understanding its compatibility, and simple care routines.

Setup & Application

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the masonry surface (e.g., render, concrete, brickwork) is clean, dry, and free from any loose material, dirt, or grease. Any existing mould or algae should be thoroughly cleaned and treated before painting.
  2. Stirring: Before use, stir the paint thoroughly to ensure a consistent colour and smooth application.
  3. Application: Apply with a brush or roller. Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and durability. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per product instructions.
  4. Drying: The paint becomes shower resistant in 30 minutes. Full cure time will be longer and is dependent on temperature and humidity.

Compatibility

  • Surfaces: This paint is specifically formulated for exterior masonry surfaces, including concrete, brick, roughcast, render, and pebbledash.
  • Colours/Sizes: While this guide focuses on the 7.5L Pure Brilliant White variant, Dulux Weathershield Masonry Smooth Paint is available in various other colours (e.g., Cream, Sandstone, Buttermilk, Red, Green, Grey) and sizes (e.g., 5L, 10L) to suit different project needs.

Care & Maintenance

  • Tool Cleaning: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm soapy water.
  • Storage: Store any unused paint in its original container, sealed tightly, in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost.
  • Surface Cleaning: For long-term maintenance of painted surfaces, a gentle wash with water and a soft brush can help remove surface dirt without damaging the paint film. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
