How to gloss patches of satin acrylic Dulux painted doors?

477bus

5-6 years ago I painted my interior doors in gloss finish Dulux Wash 'n' Wear Acrylic paint in Chalk USA.

I have scratches and dents I've addressed and painted over using a sample pot of Chalk USA which is low sheen or satin.

I need to make the patches glossy to match the rest of the doors.

Probably need 30-40ml of paint.

Dulux sample pots appear to be only in low sheen.

What would you recommend please?

Hi @477bus

If you are after the same brand of paint the smallest amount you can get is the Dulux 500ml Vivid White Wash&Wear Gloss Interior Paint. However, if you are after a gloss finish in a smaller quantity you can get White Knight 250ml White Gloss Strokes And Splashes Paint. My best advice is to get a good quality brush so that it will provide a good finish.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Hi @477bus,

My recommendation would be to paint the whole door. Patching paint so the patch is not noticeable is extremely difficult - I find it is much easier (and quicker in the long run) to simply paint over the whole area.

Hi, I need glossy Chalk USA (Dulux acrylic originally) for a single door.

Can I get a 250ml gloss sample pot in that colour?

Or is 500ml about it? $50 to paint a door is too much.

I already bought a 250ml sample pot in satin acrylic.

Hi @477bus,

It appears that my colleague Eric has answered your question above. He's linked the White Knight 250ml White Gloss Strokes And Splashes Paint if you don't want to go with the 500ml.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
