Ensure that surfaces to be painted are sound, clean and dry. New surfaces in particular must be fully dry.

• Remove all loose and defective paint. Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead.
• Where necessary, wash the surface to remove dirt, grease and powdery or dusty residues. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry.
• Seal surfaces that remain powdery after thorough preparation with an appropriate plaster sealer.
• Where necessary, rub down and then wipe off with a damp, lint free cloth to avoid dust.

Always follow the manufacturers instructions found on the tin, it is recommended that a small test area is applied before painting the entire surface to ensure compatibility.

• To reduce the risk of picture framing or a patch finish, it is important to stir the paint thoroughly before use.
• Seal new or bare surfaces with a thinned first coat of Dulux Trade Vinyl Silk (up to 1 part clean water to 5 parts paint).
• Two coats are generally required, however additional coats may be necessary when colour change is significant
• If thinned, the paint used for cutting-in and for rolling should be to the same ratio.
• Cut in one wall at a time, rolling immediately afterwards. Do not allow the cutting-in to dry before rolling.
• Cut in no more than 5 to 8cm away from any internal angles, including sockets, switches, skirting, architraves etc. Roll into the cutting-in, ensuring you roll as close to the edge as possible.
