Dulux Quick Dry Gloss paint delivers a professional, high-sheen finish ideal for common interior household items. Its quick-dry nature means you can refresh door frames, skirting boards, or metal bannisters without long waiting times. For instance, you could paint a first coat in the morning and apply the second coat in the afternoon, completing a project within a single day.
Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose paint or dirt. Lightly sand previously painted gloss surfaces to provide a key for adhesion.
Mixing: Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to ensure consistent color and finish.
Application: Apply evenly with a good quality synthetic brush or a short-pile roller. For best results, avoid over-spreading the paint.
Coats: Apply two thin, even coats for optimal coverage and durability. Allow 6 hours drying time between coats.
Temperature & Ventilation: Apply in well-ventilated areas and at moderate temperatures (ideally between 10°C and 28°C) for best drying and finish.
Clean the Surface: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease, dust, or loose material. Use a suitable cleaner if necessary.
Smooth Rough Areas: Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler and sand smooth. For previously painted gloss surfaces, a light sanding will help adhesion.
Protect Surroundings: Cover surrounding areas with dust sheets and use masking tape on edges you don't want to paint.
Stir Paint: Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure an even consistency.
Suitable Surfaces: This paint is specifically formulated for interior wood and interior metal surfaces, including radiators.
Not Recommended For: Exterior use or surfaces that will be constantly immersed in water.
Cleaning Painted Surfaces: The dried paint film is wipeable, meaning you can gently clean it with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove marks or dirt.
Tool Cleaning: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with clean water due to the paint's water-based formula.
Storage: Store the paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent drying out. Keep out of reach of children.
