FAQs

Can I use this paint indoors?

This paint is specifically formulated for exterior wood and metal surfaces, providing 10-year weather protection. While it has low VOCs, its protective features are best utilized outdoors.

How many coats do I need to apply?

Typically, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and durability. Additional coats may be needed for bare or dark surfaces to achieve the desired finish and protection.

What is the drying time between coats?

You can recoat the surface after 6 hours, allowing for efficient project completion.

What kind of surfaces can I paint with this product?

This product is suitable for exterior wood and metal doors and windows.

How much area does a 2.5L tin cover?

A 2.5L tin of Dulux Weathershield Exterior Doors & Windows Protector paint will cover up to 18 m² on average, depending on the surface porosity and application method.

How do I clean my painting tools?

Clean your brushes and other painting tools with water immediately after use.

Is this paint environmentally friendly?

Yes, it is a water-based paint with minimal VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), making it a safer choice for your home and the environment compared to many solvent-based paints.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly or peeling.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, dried, and prepared (e.g., sanded, primed if necessary). Poor adhesion often stems from inadequate surface preparation or painting over dirt/grease.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible.

Apply the paint evenly with a good quality brush, avoiding overworking the paint. Ensure adequate drying time between coats and apply thin, consistent layers.

Paint is drying too slowly.

Check ambient temperature and humidity; drying times can be affected by cold or damp conditions. Ensure thin coats are applied. Avoid painting in very cold or humid weather.

Setup

Before applying, ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and sound. Remove any loose or flaking paint, dirt, grease, or mould. For previously painted surfaces, sand lightly to provide a key. For bare wood or metal, apply an appropriate primer. Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality synthetic brush.

Compatibility

This paint is specifically designed for exterior wood and metal surfaces. It is not recommended for use on plastic, masonry, or interior surfaces where its weather-protective properties are not required. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first if unsure about compatibility with an unusual substrate.

Care

Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use. Close the tin securely after each use and store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Do not empty product into drains or watercourses. Dispose of contents/container in accordance with national regulations.
