Overview

The Dulux Avista Sealer Colour Tint is a concentrated solvent-based colourant for tinting the Dulux Avista Solvent-Based Tintable Sealer Base. One 1L tin is precisely measured to colour a full 19L pail of the base, delivering rich, UV-stable colour that turns clear sealer into a coloured protective coating for exterior decorative concrete.

The tint range covers popular shades that suit Australian architecture and landscapes, and the pigment is added straight into the base and mixed on site. No colour-matching or dispensing equipment is needed, which keeps the system simple for a trade or a homeowner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this tint with the Waterbased Tintable Base?

No. This is a solvent-based tint for the solvent-based tintable base. For the water-based system, use the Dulux Avista Water Based Colour Tint 400ML. Using the wrong tint type can cause separation, poor colour development or coating failure.

Can I mix two tint colours to create a custom shade?

Mixing tints is not recommended. They are designed as a single-colour, pre-formulated system, and blending can give unpredictable results. If you need a custom colour, speak to our team about the available options, there may already be a standard tint that matches.

How long will the tinted colour last?

When used in the solvent-based sealer system and applied correctly, the colour is UV-stable and fade-resistant, typically lasting 3 to 5 years before a maintenance coat is needed. Darker, more saturated colours may show gradual lightening sooner than lighter earth tones.

Can I use less than a full tin for a lighter shade?

No. The tint is formulated at a specific strength to achieve the advertised colour, and using less than a full tin gives a weaker, inconsistent shade. The system is designed as one tin per pail so the shade is consistent across the whole job.
