FAQs
What surfaces can I use this paint on?
This emulsion paint is suitable for interior walls and ceilings.
How much area does a 2.5L tin cover?
Coverage typically varies, but Dulux emulsions generally offer excellent coverage, often around 13 square meters per liter. The 2.5L tin should cover a substantial area, suitable for multiple rooms.
Can I get this paint in other colors?
The Boho Blush shade is a ready-mixed option. For a wider selection of Dulux colors, you can explore their mixing products range.
Is this paint washable?
The silk finish is durable and can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth. It is not a fully washable paint in the sense of scrubbing.
How long should I wait between coats?
Allow adequate drying time between coats, typically a few hours, but refer to the specific instructions on the paint tin for precise recommendations.
What is the Dulux Promise?
The Dulux Promise guarantees that the paint will provide the perfect color with a uniform finish and the stated coverage. If it doesn't meet these standards, Dulux will replace the product.
Can I paint over existing silk emulsion?
Yes, provided the existing silk emulsion is in good condition, clean, and dry. Lightly sand the surface if it is glossy to improve adhesion.
Troubleshooting
Uneven color or sheen
Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred before and during application. Apply in consistent strokes and avoid over-working the paint. Ensure adequate drying time between coats.
Paint not adhering to the surface
Check that the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Prime bare or problematic surfaces before painting. Ensure no flaky paint remains from previous coats.
Too much shine or glare
Ensure even application. The silk finish naturally reflects light; consider if a matt finish would be more suitable for your lighting conditions if this is a significant concern.
Difficulty cleaning marks
Gently wipe with a damp, soft cloth. For tougher marks, use a very mild detergent solution and rinse with clean water. Avoid scrubbing, which can damage the finish.
