Polycell Crack-Free Ceilings Smooth Matt 2.5L

Product Information

Low quality paints are often thin and contain fewer binders than higher quality paints which makes them more prone to cracking over time. Cracks that are larger than a normal, thin hairline crack (3/16” of an inch) could be an indicator of a structural issue, especially if these cracks are jagged and don’t go in one consistent direction. But in the later stages, as you can see towards the bottom of the image above, the paint begins to separate and crack apart, making the problem more serious and harder to fix. A. No this product does not cover any stains, we would suggest using Zinsser Cover Stain before applying this product.

But besides being a visually unappealing, cracking, flaking paint can sometimes be dangerous or an indicator of something more serious happening inside your walls. This then offers up a very porous, thirsty surface and as the top coat sinks into the wall it has to work very hard to perform well, and this is why oftentimes paints crack. What happens is that an already and porous surface is painted with a cheap, chalky and unstable product to produce a mist coat. By understanding the causes of paint cracking and taking preventive measures, you can ensure that your walls stay looking beautiful for years to come.It’s important to work the paint over the glue just once, as multiple coats and retouching can ruin the crackle effect. Now that your area is safely protected from any spillages, and you’ve chosen your Dulux paint colours, you’re ready to get going with your base layer of paint.
