Dulux Renovation Range Primer requires a clean surface to adhere. All grease, silicone and dirt contamination must be removed, or the paint will not adhere and will peel or flake off.
To remove silicone:
Step 1 – Apply Selleys Silicone remover and allow it a suitable time to soften the silicone.
Step 2 – Remove the softened Silicone with a grout and sealer removal tool.
Step 3 – Mechanically scrape the joint until all signs of silicone are removed.
Step 4 – Take a piece of p400 paper and work it into and along the joint to abrade both sides of the joint and remove remaining silicone sealant on the surface.
Step 5 – Clean the joint with a scouring pad and Selleys Sugar Soap until clean.
Step 6 – Rinse with clean water and allow to dry. The surface is now ready to paint.
Important: Do not use abrasive cleaning detergents.
Previously painted surfaces
On all surfaces, cleaning is the most important step. Scrub down with Selleys® Sugar Soap and rinse with clean water to remove any dirt, oil or grease. Use a plastic scouring pad on heavily contaminated surfaces. Repeat this process using clean water, at least twice.

Important: Do not use abrasive cleaning detergents. Completely remove any loose and flaking paint. Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable hard epoxy based filler such as Selleys KneadIT® Aqua. Sand glossy and semi gloss finishes to a dull flat finish using p400 paper before coating. Use a clean damp cloth to remove any dust. Mask using a good quality painters tape

Unused paint: Do not pour leftover paint down the drain. Unwanted paint should be brushed out on newspaper and allowed to dry, and then disposed of via domestic waste collections. Empty paint containers: Leave empty paint containers open in a well-ventilated area to dry out. When dry, recycle the container via steel can recycling programs. Disposal of empty paint containers via domestic recycling programs may differ between local authorities. Check with your local council first. Do not reuse container unless thoroughly decontaminated.
