    Any one knows the price of 2 1/2 / 5 litres of white emulsion for the pod system.
    Thinking I would mainly use it for white ceilings.

    why can't you use other paints?
  • you can not use other paints cos they come in a special non reuseable paint pod that inserts into the machine.

  • must say it looks good on the tv and would save money on the painting accessories in the end but yes the paint is expensive and I buy all my paint trays and brushes from Poundland. I bought 5 litres of kitchen and bathroom ceiling paint last week and that was £18.99 for an ordinary tin - so it is only a few quid more. But i guess every £1 counts
