TRADE AND TRUSTED

VOC legislation - it's time to get the facts!From January 2010 all manufactured decorative coatings have to comply

with the new VOC limits as set out by EU directive 2004/42/EC. This means

that many of the solvent borne products you use today will change in

order to adhere to this legislation. Dulux Paints Ireland understands the

great results delivered by solvent borne paints, stains and varnishes and

for 2010 will be launching fully VOC compliant, solvent based products.

Water-based paintsWhere possible, water-based paints should be selected in preference to

solvent-based paints – particularly for any large interior surface area such

as walls, ceilings and floors.

Lead in paintSpecial precautions should be taken during surface preparation of

pre-1960’s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain

harmful lead. For further advice contact the Dulux Technical

Advice Department on 021 422 0222.

Pesticide regulations informationWeathershield Multi-Surface Fungicidal wash contains Disodium

Octaborate and Benzalkonium Chloride.

Read the label before you buy.

Use pesticides safely.

Special Process ColoursSome colours, termed ‘Special Process Colours,’ may require additional

coats or a specific undercoat.

For details of the process contact the Technical Advice Centre on

021 422 0222 or your Dulux tinted paint stockist.

Tinting best practiceFor best colour consistency, sufficient tinted paint should be purchased

from the same source for each job, including touch-in.

Sample it firstIt’s often easier to judge colour with a larger sample as this will help to

judge how the colour varies with lighting conditions. Dulux colours are

available in convenient samples that can be used to paint an area of wall

or piece of board to give an impression of the colour.

Technical GroupDulux is committed to giving you full support, when and where you need

it. The Dulux Technical Team are always on hand to give you information

and advice on Dulux Trade, Cuprinol, Polycell Trade, Sikkens and

Hammerite products, services and literature.
