The Dulux Mellow Mocha Satinwood paint is designed for straightforward application, making it suitable for refreshing various interior elements. For optimal results, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose material before application. Using a quality brush will help achieve a smooth, even finish on intricate wood details like skirting boards, door frames, and furniture. For larger, flatter areas such as panel doors or shelves, a roller can provide faster and more consistent coverage.
Expect a drying time of approximately 6 hours between coats or before handling. This allows the paint to cure properly, contributing to its durable and long-lasting finish. With an average coverage of 16 m² per litre, this paint offers good value for common household projects, from updating wooden banisters to refreshing metal radiators or picture frames. Always ensure adequate ventilation during and after painting to aid the drying process and disperse fumes.
Prepare the Surface: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any loose paint, dirt, or grease. Sand glossy surfaces lightly to provide a key for adhesion. For bare wood or metal, a suitable primer may be beneficial.
Stir Thoroughly: Before and during use, stir the paint well to ensure even colour and consistency.
Ventilation: Work in a well-ventilated area.
This paint is specifically formulated for use on metal and wood surfaces. Ensure the surface is structurally sound and prepared as advised.
While suitable for interior applications, for exterior metal or wood, consider using a product specifically designed for outdoor exposure.
Application Tools: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm, soapy water or a suitable brush cleaner.
Storage: Store the paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
Maintenance: Once applied, the durable finish can be wiped clean with a damp cloth to maintain its appearance.
