Dulux Weathershield® Super Hide provides ultimate hiding power due to concentrated levels of titanium pigment. It is specially designed to provide a tough, hard-wearing finish that provides protection from all weather conditions. Formulated with MaxiFlex® Technology to expand and contract with the surface, Dulux guarantees Weathershield® won't peel, flake or blister for as long as you live in your home.

All preparation and painting must conform to AS2311: The Painting of Buildings.
Do not apply at air or surface temperatures below 10°C or when temperatures may fall below 10°C during the drying period. In summer paint on the shady side of the building. If conditions are hot and windy, cool the surface by hosing with water and paint the cool damp surface. Do not apply to roofs or surfaces used for the collection of drinking water. In normal conditions, 7 days curing is required to develop full hardness and resistance properties. Occasionally when dew or condensation forms on dried film, a slight milky deposit may be observed on the film. This is quite normal and does not impair the performance - simply hose or wipe it off with a damp rag.
Where possible avoid dark colours on lightweight or panelised building systems as these will give rise to much higher surface temperature that may cause additional thermal stress and cooling demand to the building envelope and/or require extra engineering considerations. Always refer to the substrate manufacturer's LRV recommendation.
Painted and pre-primed surfaces:
• Test if surface is sound.
• Scrape off all loose and flaking paint.
• Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable filler.
• Sand all surfaces to a flat finish and remove greyed timber.
• Dust off.
1. Stir well with a broad flat paddle using an up and down scooping action.
2. Apply two generous coats of Dulux Weathershield®
3. Apply three coats on all unpainted surfaces.
4. Work quickly from an unpainted area into a wet area to minimise brush marks.
5. When applying on very porous surfaces, thin the first coat with up to 100mL of water per litre.
6. When painting windows, use sparingly on contact areas.
7. Open windows within 30 minutes and again two or three times in the first 24 hours.
Airless or Conventional Spray: Suitable for application by all standard spray equipment. Apply wet even coats. If necessary thin with up to 100 ml/litre water to aid atomisation. Under hot or very windy conditions, up to 100 ml/litre of Dulux Hot Weather Thinner may be added to ease application.
