What is the best silk emulsion paint?

Seppemmajoe

I am looking to paint my entire downstairs in silk magnolia emulsion. I've been looking at dulux, crown, wicked etc. I'm going to need a lot so wanted to try and combine quality with cost. Any recommendations would be great. Thanks

I've never used silk, I prefer matt but homebase's own of that is excellent. And a lot cheaper than the big brands.

I love silk paint and can definitely recommend Dulux and Crown

Ive never used any other brand

Leyland Trade emulsion which can be purchased from the likes of Screwfix is my choice these days.. Tried most of the ones you named but to be honest there is no comparison in my opinion.. There is a reason trade use Leyland as they don't want to have to do two coats unless necessary!

Dulux trade matt for me.

Another vote for Leyland paint.

matt every time and just tried wickes, very easy to use and covers well.

My (flippant) answer is none of them. I hate silk with a vengeance but thats just me. Sorry to troll the thread.

Cheers
