ICI Dulux Interior Acrylic Putty — Interior Wall Filler in Karachi
ICI Dulux Interior Acrylic Putty is a smooth, easy-to-apply putty formulated for achieving a perfectly flat interior surface before painting. Available at Saify Paint House, your authorized ICI Dulux Paints dealer in Karachi since 1999, it delivers excellent adhesion on plaster and concrete.
The preparation stage behind every premium Dulux interior finish, it is what allows the Ambiance, Easycare, and Pentalite ranges to deliver the smooth results they are specified for.
Why This Stage Determines the Finish
Interior plaster in Karachi construction is rarely delivered paint-ready. Trowel marks, pinholes, hairline cracks, and minor undulations are normal — and any emulsion applied directly over them highlights every one, particularly on walls catching side light from a window.
Putty fixes this at the cheapest possible stage. A properly applied and sanded layer produces a flat, consistent surface, so the topcoat sits on something uniform rather than following the texture beneath. This matters most where you have specified a premium finish — applying Ambiance VT Diamond Glo over an uneven wall produces an expensive-looking uneven wall, because gloss reflects every flaw the putty stage failed to correct.
Ceilings deserve particular attention. They receive the most unforgiving light in any room, and an unfilled ceiling shows every plaster imperfection once painted, regardless of the emulsion quality above it.
Easy application matters practically as much as the finished result. A putty that spreads smoothly without dragging, and sands cleanly rather than clogging the abrasive, saves genuine time on every wall — and on a whole-property job, that adds up to a meaningful difference in labour.
ICI Dulux is backed by AkzoNobel, a global leader in paints and coatings with over 200 years of innovation. Full technical specifications for this product are available on the official Dulux Pakistan website.

ICI Dulux Interior Acrylic Putty is used for interior surface preparation:
- New plaster requiring smoothing before first painting

Suitable for interior plaster and concrete surfaces in sound, dry condition.
Application Guidance
The surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, loose material, and old flaking paint. New plaster must cure fully before putty is applied — if moisture is still leaving the plaster, the putty and every coat above it will fail together.
Mix to a smooth, workable consistency following the instructions on the pack. Apply with a putty knife or steel blade in thin, even layers. Two thin coats consistently outperform one thick one — thick applications shrink and crack as they dry.
Once fully dry, sand smooth. If a premium gloss or pearl finish is planned, check the sanded surface with a light held close and angled across it — this reveals undulation that direct lighting conceals, and it is the standard worth working to before a sheen topcoat.
Remove all sanding dust thoroughly — wipe down rather than brushing off. Prime with ICI Dulux Interior Acrylic Primer before painting, since bare putty is porous and absorbs topcoat unevenly.
Completing Your Interior System
This putty is the first stage in the Dulux interior sequence.
Follow with ICI Dulux Interior Acrylic Primer to seal and control absorption. Finish with the topcoat suited to your room — ICI Dulux Pentalite Classic for everyday use, ICI Dulux Easycare where washability matters, or the Ambiance VT collection for premium finishes.
For cost-conscious projects, ICI Dulux Promise Interior Putty offers a value alternative at a similar standard. Our team at either DHA store can specify the full system.
