Dulux Weathershield Max

Dulux Weathershield Max is a high-performance premium exterior emulsion powered by Polyurethane Technology, that provides excellent protection against weather and durability of 9 Years. The product is equipped with Crack Proof Technology that allows the paint film to stretch itself to bridge cracks upto 0.75mm and prevents water ingress from the exterior surface. Hence preventing dampness not only in exteriors, but also in the interiors of the house.

Step 1 : Surface Preparation
Ensure surface is thoroughly clean, dry and free from all loose dirt, chalk, grease, fungi, algae and flaking paint. This can be achieved by brushing with a wire/stiff coir brush, followed by water jetting if required. Use Dulux Aquatech Pre Treatment Coat to ensure that algae and fungi are removed from the roots.
