This extra light reflectance makes rooms feel more spacious. The coverage is excellent at up to 17m2 per litre and it's ready for a recoat in 2-4 hours.

Preparation

For best results, make sure that surfaces to be painted are sound, clean, dry and free from all defective or poorly adhering material, dirt, grease and salts. Remove all loose and defective paint.

• Wash where necessary to remove dirt, grease and powdery or dusty residues. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry.
• Surfaces that remain powdery after thorough preparation should be sealed with an appropriate .
• Where necessary, rub down and then wipe off with a damp, lint free cloth to avoid dust.

Note: Pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal may contain harmful lead, so special precautions should be taken when painting these surfaces.

Application

Stir thoroughly before, we recommend to perform a test patch to ensure you are happy with the finished results.

• Stir thoroughly before use, do not apply in temperatures below 8°C
• Apply with a brush, roller, conventional spray or airless spray
• Seal new or bare surfaces with a thinned first coat of Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt Light Space (up to 1 part clean water to 5 parts paint)
• Normal finishing is 2 full coats of Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt Light Space, however on previously painted surfaces in good condition in similar colours, 1 coat may suffice

Brush and roller

• If thinning is required add up to 1 part clean water to 10 parts paint (not to be exceeded)
• Always start at the edges with a good quality brush and fill the remaining space using a roller

Conventional spray

• If thinning is required add up to 1 part clean water to 2.5 parts paint

Airless spray application

• If thinning is required add up to 1 part clean water to 5 parts paint
• A typical set up for airless spray application would be a minimum working pressure on paint of 133 bars (2000 lb/sq in) with a spray tip size of 0.38mm (15 thou) and a spray tip angle of 65°

Note: Always read and follow the manufacturer's instructions found on the tin
