The Dulux Weathershield Exterior Gloss Paint is engineered for superior performance on outdoor metal and wood. Once applied to properly prepared surfaces, it forms a robust, flexible film that offers excellent resistance to weathering, including protection against mould and cracking. This ensures your gates, fences, doors, window frames, or garden furniture maintain a pristine, high-gloss Oxford Blue finish for an extended period. For instance, repainting an old garden gate with this product will not only transform its appearance with a deep, vibrant blue but also shield it from rust and decay, ensuring it withstands rain, sun, and temperature fluctuations. Expect a smooth, durable finish that maintains its colour intensity and shine long after application, making your exterior elements a striking feature of your home. A single 750ml tin is sufficient to cover approximately 18 m², ideal for medium-sized projects.
1. Surface Preparation: Before painting, ensure all exterior metal and wood surfaces are thoroughly cleaned, dry, and free from loose paint, dirt, grease, or rust. For best results and optimal adhesion, prime bare metal or wood surfaces with an appropriate exterior primer. Lightly sand previously painted gloss surfaces to provide a key for the new paint. 2. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply the paint using a good quality brush. For maximum depth of colour and protection, apply two coats. Avoid applying in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. 3. Recoating: Allow a minimum of 16 hours drying time before applying a second coat. Ensure the first coat is completely dry to the touch before recoating. 4. Compatibility: This paint is specifically designed for exterior metal and wood surfaces. Do not use on interior surfaces. 5. Cleaning & Care: Clean brushes immediately after use with a suitable solvent-based brush cleaner or white spirit. Store the tin in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost, with the lid tightly sealed to prevent drying out.
