    It says to stir the paint thoroughly on my tin of dulux satinwood...and it is a bit shinier than I'd have expected, hoping it's going to dull down a bit...

    Iv'e used it for the last 3 years on my house and it does take a few weeks to cure/dry and tone down.....

    Even emulsion paint takes about a month to cure completely.

    Don't use Eggshell as it's harder to wipe clean because of its rougher texture.

    My Satinwood is still looking white after 2 years.
