Homeowner Lifetime Limited Guarantee Dunn-Edwards Corporation guarantees that its premium primer and paint finish systems, when used in accordance with the label instructions, will not (a) crack, chip, blister, or peel from properly prepared surfaces, or (b) wear down or weather to expose the underlying surface. This guarantee is made to homeowner customers only, and shall be effective for as long as you own your home. This guarantee is not transferable. This guarantee does not cover (i) normal color fading, gloss loss, or chalking caused by exposure to sunlight, wind, or water; (ii) abrasion or burnishing due to scrubbing, traffic, or other wear and tear; (iii) cracking, chipping, blistering, or peeling caused by structural expansion and contraction, settling, or other movement of building components, by excessive heat exposure, or by water intrusion; (iv) film degradation or discoloration due to mold or mildew; or (v) damages resulting from improper surface preparation or coating application, extraordinary or catastrophic events, or failure to perform recommended maintenance. Recommended maintenance of painted surfaces includes frequent periodic inspection (at least once every six months), cleaning to remove dirt on exterior surfaces, and touch-up or repair as needed in order to maintain the integrity of painted surfaces over time. Specific recommended procedures are included in Dunn-Edwards' How to Paint Interior and Exterior Projects Brochures.

If the premium primer and paint finish system fails to perform as guaranteed, return any unused portions or original packaging of the primer and paint to the store with proof of purchase and you will receive, as your sole remedy under this guarantee, your choice of additional primer and/or paint of equal value or a full refund. This guarantee excludes labor or the cost of labor for the application of any primers or paints and excludes any incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This guarantee gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
