Dulux Weathershield

For long-lasting exterior performance, choose Dulux Weathershield - our toughest paint yet. Engineered to withstand the harshest weather conditions, it resists UV damage, dirt, mould, and algae to help exterior surfaces stay protected and looking freshly painted for longer, backed by the Dulux Promise.

Before you paint

Before you paint ensure you have properly prepared the area.

Before you begin, stir your paint to ensure a consistent colour across the job. Your brush and roller soak up more paint when they’re damp, so wash them prior to use.

Painting your bricks

Never leave a paint-covered roller exposed to the air for any length of time. Wrap it in plastic cling wrap when you take a break or between coats, and make sure to clean it completely after use.

When you've finished

Once you have completed your project painting don’t forget to turn your leftover paint into hard waste with Dulux Envirosolutions: Waste Paint Hardener, and share your results with us! We love to hear about all of your projects.
