Bathroom +

Dulux Bathroom+ is a steam and moisture resistant soft sheen finish for walls which has a 5 year mould-resistant paint film. Perfect for steamy bathrooms.

Surface preparation

To get the best results with Dulux Bathroom, make sure surfaces to be painted are sound, clean and dry (new surfaces particularly must be fully dry). Full durability develops seven days after original application. Before surface preparation, read the information in the Safety, Health And Environmental Information section about old lead paints.
Any surface defects should be filled with the appropriate Polycell Polyfilla.
General preparation: Remove any loose or flaking paint. Where necessary, wash the surface to remove dirt, grease etc. Sand down to remove any sheen.
Treat surfaces affected by mould growth with a suitable fungicidal wash.
Seal new, bare and porous surfaces, including previously unpainted patterned textured ceiling coatings, new buildings that have a plasterboard finish and wallcoverings that are suitable for painting (not vinyl or washables) For best results, use Dulux Plaster Sealer.

How to use

Stir thoroughly with a palette knife or similar implement before use.
In hot weather and warm environments, up to 10% clean water may be added and stirred in to ease application. For normal use thinning is not required.
Apply 1 or 2 coats of Dulux Bathroom using a suitable brush or roller. Where the second coat is required, allow a minimum of 5 hours between coats. When conditions are colder, more time must be allowed for the first coat to dry fully.
Dulux Bathroom is not suitable for areas regularly soaked with water e.g. shower enclosures.
Do not use this paint on radiators and other heated surfaces. Do not use or store the paint in extremes of temperature. Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean the painted surface. Vigorous scouring may impair the Soft Sheen finish. It is not possible to remove stains such as red wine, tea, coffee etc.
