Dulux Sealer for Plaster 2.5L

Product Information

A traditional style pairs well with neutral colours. Starting with off-white and ending with darker shades of beige, sand, and brown, there are plenty of options to choose from. Khaki and pear green add personality to a traditional environment while matching with other earthy tones.

When doing the mist coat you could see stains in the plaster in places (Maybe pva mixed in plaster). On large surfaces, the best way to apply the paint is with a roller; however, you should first paint the edges with a paintbrush, then fill in the remaining area with a roller. Leave the paint to dry as instructed and apply a second coat if necessary.Cover all areas not to be painted with masking tape and lay drop cloths on the floor and surrounding furniture. I wouldn't bother with any commercial plaster sealer tbh. Just a simple mist coat followed by 2 coat neat coats of emulsion would do the job. The mist coat was too neat meaning what little water there was is absorbed leaving the vinyl element of the paint on the surface of the plaster instead of actually soaking into the plaster evenly.

New plaster walls require minimal surface preparation. Usually, a light sanding and cleaning suffice. If you’re redecorating previously painted walls, inspect the state of the old paint and remove any flakes and peeling bits. Painting new plaster that’s completely dry can also leave you with uneven brush strokes. So, the next course of action is to create your own mist coat paint. Mist coat paint is simply watered-down emulsion paint, which acts as your primer. All you need to do is get some white emulsion paint and thin it out with water – it’s that easy! Ten parts paint to one part water should work. Application: Brush, roller or spray. STIR THOROUGHLY BEFORE USE. Use Dulux Trade Drywall Primer Sealer on new or bare surfaces. The normal finishing process is 2 coats of a recommended Dulux Trade emulsion. Allow 2-4 hours between coats. A guide to the practical coverage which can be achieved under normal conditions is up to 15m² per litre.One wall looks shiny and after sanding with 120 grit the wall still feels very smooth and the pours of the plaster looks very closed. Mix a 50/50 ratio of water and emulsion (white wash). Paint the whole ceiling making sure to coat everything and not to go too mad on this coat. You still have two more coats to go on there. Priming is necessary on new or bare plaster surfaces. A plaster sealer or primer provides an impermeable base that reduces wall porosity while improving adherence. This reduces the quantity of paint required, minimising the costs and duration of the project. Q. I’m painting new plaster and want to achieve a professional finish.
