Can I use white wash and wear + anti bac in my bathroom ceiling?
Hi Elizabeth,
Thanks for your question. Yes you can use Dulux Wash&Wear +PLUS Anti Bac on your ceilings. Note this is a low sheen finish. We also have a ceiling product with mould resistance properties designed for bathroom spaces - Dulux Ceiling White, Kitchen & Bathroom. The advantage of using this over Dulux Wash&Wear is that you'll achieve a flatter finish which is often desired on ceilings to help reduce the appearance of imperfections. When applying in a small area, remember to keep doors & windows open to help with ventilation. Ideally keep them open until your paint smell has dissipated. A fan can also be handy to help with this.
Kind regards,
Dulux Australia
How long does it take to dry using wash and wear any bacterial?
I did not use the bacterial wash & Wear and it perhaps did look like it was going to take longer to dry so we applied the 2nd coat the next day....as for drying after 1st application I could not be totally sure as we left as soon as coat one was done.
Hi Gailee,
The standard recoat time for Wash&Wear +Plus Anti-Bac is 2 hours. That time is based on a standardised room temperature of 25 degrees and 50% humidity. In reality, environmental conditions vary and should be taken into account when painting. When applied in lower temperatures or in higher humidity, the drying and recoat time will take longer. On the other hand, when applied in hotter temperatures and lower humidity, paint dry times will be less.
