The way its going that would be next year , we painted all the wood work in a matt finish paint but didnt like it , so we bought silk finish , but it seems to be reacting , and its like painting with nivea ceam , once that has dried its ok but its taking soooo long , i would nip out for that pint, if it wasnt for the fierce one standing over me , joe okay dear .

I didn't want gloss paint indoors either, the two I liked was eggshell it's a better finish than matt, the other one was satin
that had a little bit more sheen to it they are both a nice finish, JF
