    B & Q awful, delux you pay for the name. F & B paying for the gimmick of pretty named colours.
    Johnson or Crowne for decent quality.

    Internal woodwork I use Sikkens Satura with Sikkens Bl primer every time. The dogs do dars of the paint world. Expensive but you will get far move coverage and wont go yellow coloured like white gloss. I love this paint.

    Oil paints go yellow if not exposed to uv light.Water based dont have this problem but are harder to apply unless you know how to use them properly.

    The dulux trade diamond stuff is good for a waterbased paint.The sikkens is well rated too but is ££.
