Hi all
Before I put my house on the market I want to repaint all the woodwork as its looking a bit tatty. I want to use a brilliant white Satin and I've just discovered on the Dulux website "Quick Dry Satin". Its sounds perfect as it is low odour and quick drying. Anyone got any experience of using it? Is it any good? Thanks for any advice! Regards Stephen |

Anyone got any experience of using it? Is it any good? Rubbish. No resistance to wear and tear and looks like a coat of soft plastic. Primer/undercoat is the only water based product I'd use |

Not bad but: * Sanding and washing down is more important than with oil-based, especially if putting it on top of oil-based. * Avoid the equivalent gloss - it isn't. I would choose it over 1-coat gloss anytime. -- Spamtrap in use To email replace 127.0.0.1 with blueyonder dot co dot uk |
