System information

To get the best results make sure surfaces to be painted are sound, clean and dry. New surfaces particularly must be fully dry.

Apply 1 or 2 coats of Aquatech Undercoat as required, followed by 1 or 2 coats of Dulux Trade Aquatech Gloss. Where a strong colour change is involved, 2 coats will be required.

Newly painted doors and windows should not be closed (tightly) until the paint is fully dry.

After use, remove as much paint as possible from equipment before cleaning in a solution of warm water and detergent. For stubborn residues use Dulux Brush Cleaner and Renovator.
