    Tell you to work one square meter at a time which is completely impractical on an professional job because they know their paint flashes like hell so there covering themselves.
    Much easier to buy paint that doesn't flash like Johnstones covaplus

      Sometimes you wonder why you are not happy with how you paint ,watch and learn and make sure you got loads of different paintbrushes and it will help you a lot, it's all about a steady hand and the right tool

    Hi do you have any tips for painting over a patch where a baby gate a rubbed a patch on the wall. I painted over it but the patch remains darker. Would it just need stain block. Only trouble is most stain blocks still show through unless you oInt the whole wall with the stuff

      Yep don't follow this guy. Door frames before walls, use a roller pole unless you want to be on the same wall for 15mins, use a bigger brush with a wider stock and hold the brush on the stock this gives more control. This list goes on this guy is a rookie. Sorry mate I'm just stating the facts.

    Vinyl silk is a horrible finish to work with,if you want a wipeable and scrubbable finish I would recommend Armstead Durable Matt which is a brilliant paint to work with! Also I don’t ever go on to door frames etc with the wall paint it’s not good working practice.
