Achieving the best results with Dulux Orange Fizz Gloss Paint involves proper surface preparation and application.
Before painting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any loose paint, rust, dirt, or grease. For previously painted glossy surfaces, a light sanding will improve adhesion.
Stir the paint thoroughly before and occasionally during use to ensure an even consistency and color.
Apply the paint using a brush, ensuring even strokes. Work in small sections to maintain a wet edge.
Apply the first coat and allow it to dry completely for 6 hours.
Apply a second coat for optimal durability, color depth, and finish. Again, allow 6 hours for drying.

This Dulux paint is specifically formulated for interior and exterior wood and metal surfaces. It is not recommended for other materials like plastic, plaster, or masonry unless explicitly stated on the can.
Brush Cleaning: Clean brushes immediately after use. For gloss paint, a suitable paint brush cleaner or white spirit is typically required. Refer to the specific instructions on the paint can.
Storage: Store the paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out or skinning over.
Surface Maintenance: Once applied and fully cured, the painted surface can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth if needed.
