Dulux Weathershield Gloss Acrylic

Paint has very little shine even it states it’s gloss, leaving ugly brush marks no matter what kind of brush is used. It’s also overpriced and is definitely not the dulux it used to be. Waist of your money and time and lots of disappointments.
I will never buy dulux product again.

I have used dulux paints for over 40 years and never had problems with any of their paints. This paint has caused me to look elsewhere. It does not dry within the stated time frame, is still sticky days later which makes another coat difficult, it does not cover at all well and needs 3-4 coats rather than 2 to get anything like a reasonable finish. I have found it to be unusable, very poor quality and it lacks the gloss finish that their external gloss paints used to give. My message to dulux would be to take this paint off the market and revert to the previous tried and true external gloss paints that did work.

Dulux Weathershield is not worth the money. Stays sticky, cannot get a good finish, still has an odour after 5 weeks. Had so many issues and problems with Dulux paints while renovating our house. Used to be my go to paint but not any more.

I followed the instructions and it is still not dried.. after over 2 weeks it is still very tacky. Same experience as the other reviewer titled, “ Won't Dry - Stays Tacky”… I went back to Bunnings and they said they could have over tinted. They suggested I scrape it all back and start again!!! I painted my bee hives and I have no time to re-paint… I shouldn’t have to rework it particularly when it wasn’t cheap. Very disappointed, pls don’t message me and ask me to call you to rectify… I am not doing it AGAIN! I should be eligible for a refund!!!

Good product. Painted bare dried rough sawn timber balusters. Brushed on no problem, dried and adhered. Basically what I’d expect of paint. For those giving bad reviews of this paint, it is easy to blame the material and tools we use rather than ourselves. Note: do not use any water based paints on treated timber without checking first with the paint manufacturer. Some of these timbers are treated to repel water ie LOSP bare or primed. If freshly treated this timber will repel just about any coating. Research and prep is key!

Never again, tinted green dulux weathershield. Retailer replaced tin for a factory tinted can .no better cut my losses and bought a diffrent brand. extra expense and tripple the work. at least diffrent brand hasn't peeled off like glad wrap.

Dries too quick and remains soft for a long time. Does not flow nicely. And tne colour (green) seperates even while regularly stirring. Disappointing product. Used to be my favourite paint.

I am extending my timber cottage, there was painted by a professional painter 4 years ago. I bought the same paint from same shop to match but the colour very different when sun hit the wall.
The paint is still not dry after 2 weeks. Oily, sticky substance on surface when sun out.
I have painted the walls, balustrades and poles but can not finish my job.

Hi there, been a professional painter for 30 years and never have i had so many problems with a paint. Spraying corrugated iron as i have done many times before and it was like applying glue. It was tacky and ran, ran, ran. I understand that Extra Bright base can be bit stickier and harder to apply but this was just unacceptable in anyones terms. Sorry havent had this many problems with a paint for many many years

I have done a lot of painting over the years and never before have I had a problem like this. We had had a new front door installed and wanted it to be particularly good and as I had always been happy with Dulux products, I purchased the Deluxe Weathershield Gloss paint for the job. I used a good quality undercoat first then next day painted the door. The day was warm but not particularly hot but the paint went on like treacle. I painted the horizontal panels between the glass first then when I went to paint the vertical panels the paint s...

I have painted a surface over a week ago and it is still tacky.I used a three in one primer before the top coats.I LEFT THE FIRST COAT 4 HOURS BEFORE RECOATING.
Your technical expert says it could take up to 4 weeks to harden in humid weather.The weather is humid but I have never had this problem with any paint.
The colour is licorice green which has a blue tint.
If a dark colour is not suitable for humid weather I would think that the customer should be advised before purchasing
I have been a dulux customer for ever and use aquanamel in gloss and high gloss regularly with no problems.
I don't know where to go from here

Very easy to apply and long lasting. Fantastic colour selection. Great price always at Bunnings with the very best of assistance by their staff.
It never fades or flakes off so you never have those worries at all. Wish Dulux made a paving paint. Bunnings have the best turnover so you know you never get old paint which has been left on the shelf.
