To get the best results with Dulux Trade Diamond Matt, make sure surfaces to be painted are sound, clean, dry (new surfaces particularly must be fully dry). Remove all loose and defective paint.
Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead. Where necessary, wash the surface to remove dirt, grease and powdery or dusty residues. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry.
Seal surfaces that remain powdery after thorough preparation with an appropriate plaster sealer. Where necessary, rub down and then wipe off with a damp, lint free cloth to avoid dust.
Brush, roller, conventional spray or airless spray. As with other water-based paints, do not apply in temperatures below 8ºC (as recommended by British Standard BS 6150).
To minimise picture framing or patchy finishes, we strongly recommend stirring the paint thoroughly prior to use. If thinned, the paint used for cutting in and for rolling should be to the same ratio.
Cut in one wall at a time, then rolling immediately afterwards, not allowing the cutting-in to dry prior to rolling. Cut in no more than 5 to 8cm away from any internal angles, including sockets/switches, skirting, architraves, etc. Roll into the cutting-in, ensuring you roll as close to the edge as possible.
