Previously Painted Surfaces
All surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned and free of all loose dirt, dust, grease, loose or flaking paint, and loose surface plaster. In areas where mould or mildew are present, use a household bleach solution. Dilute 1 part bleach with 3 parts clean water. Wear gloves and goggles. Use a scouring pad wet with bleach solution to lightly abrade the surface. Leave the bleach solution on the surface for 15 minutes, then thoroughly remove by washing down with clean water and wipe dry. In very severe cases, repeat this action to remove all mould. Scrape and sand down any loose, peeling and flaking paint. Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable filler. Sand gloss and semi gloss finishes to a dull flat finish to allow a sound surface before top coating. Clean with a damp cloth, then apply one coat of Dulux 1 Step Acrylic Primer Sealer Undercoat to any areas which have been repaired or which have an uneven gloss level. Areas where paint has pealed, seal with Dulux Sealer Binder.

Under hot conditions application can be eased by thinning with up to 50ml of water per litre. For spraying thin with 10% water.
