We need a lot of white paint, Dulux does not look like the right spelling but it was almost 90 euros for a big tub so went for 44 euro bricodepot one. Today we were in an upmarket supermarket Aldi they had German paint at 11 euros something so bought two tubs of 11 liters. Went back tonight and cleared them out and got a crisp top up and vanilla milkshake, its cheap and covers well who pays 90 euros for paint.  The tub says professional and not ferry builders special  |

Without doubt from the same German manufacturer as the Lidl one, I always used to clear them out when they had it in.
The coverage is excellent, the only person who badmothed it was ALBOF. I too had some of the dodgy batch with granules in it but they came off easily with a couteau à maroufler and I did not let the one bad experience destroy my loyalty.
Action sold the same paint and unlike Didldaldi it was a permanent stock line and not an Arrivage, problem being that they have had supply chain difficulties on paint, especially the aérosols for several months now.

Im sure it will be from the same factory had never tried it before. We used a paint roller but bought an electric spray gun today. Do you spray it on brush or roller? It has just been pointed out by the accounts dep it was 16 a tub and I had spelt professional wrong |

Baufix - same stuff - you can buy it online and have it delivered. Which saves waiting for the weeks it's in store.

I roller it on, spraying will just have you spending all your time trying to get the kit working properly which it never will unless you spend thousands on it and then use special paint.
For commercial guys doing hundreds of square meters in new builds that dont need everything masking it makes economic sense but not with Baufix paint!
The delivery costs are not surprisingly high for Baufix paint.
I knew €11 was probably a mistake or a very special deal, I used to pay that price & its worth treble that.
