Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt Paint - White - 5L

This product is designed for general interior walls and ceilings. For bathrooms or kitchens with high humidity, a specialist moisture-resistant paint is recommended.

The flat matt finish is not as resistant to scrubbing as eggshell or silk finishes. Light cleaning with a damp cloth is generally possible, but harsh scrubbing should be avoided.

While the high opacity often allows for two-coat coverage, the final requirement depends on the color of the underlying surface and the surface porosity.

You should lightly sand existing silk or gloss surfaces to dull the sheen and create a key, then apply a suitable primer or base coat before painting with Vinyl Matt.

Typically, the paint is touch dry within 1-2 hours, and a second coat can usually be applied after 2-4 hours, depending on room temperature and humidity.

Ensure you are using the correct pile length for your surface and avoid overworking the paint once it begins to tack.

Check that the surface was properly cleaned and free of dust before application; ensure all loose or flaking old paint was scraped away.

Ensure the surface was primed properly, especially if painting over porous or bare plaster, and apply sufficient even coats.
