Hi all
Got some windows (a lot) of them to do. Ive spent today rubbing them down. Am i best spending the time and using a dulux undercoat then the dulux weathershield, or something else. Time isnt too much of a problem as the quote was for 2 weeks work.
If i used the undercoat, would i only have to put 1 coat of gloss on?
Cheers
Andy |

You would need to use weathershield undercoat as well..but I cant see the point of using a flexble paint like weathershield over the top of an existing inflexible one.
One coat of gloss should do if it covers..weathershield isnt the best of coverers.
