System information

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

New or bare surfaces should be primed with an appropriate Dulux Trade primer.

Apply 1 coat of Dulux Trade Fast Undercoat, followed by 1 coat of Dulux Trade Fast Gloss. Allow a minimum of 4 to 6 hours for the undercoat to dry before applying the gloss finish. The gloss paint film will typically fade to white in 4 to 6 hours, but these times will be increased in poor lighting and drying conditions. Where a second coat of Dulux Trade Fast Gloss is required, allow a minimum of 16 hours between coats.

After use, remove as much paint as possible from brushes before cleaning with white spirit.
