@robatwork is the leyland paint anygood for painting on to fresh plaster as per the comments on the screwfix website or would you still put a seal coat on first?

I would go with Dulux but not from a DIY shop find a trade store if you can for much better prices. I tend to buy from Brewers and can't fault them, lots of helpful tips too."We act as though comfort and luxury are the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about” – Albert Einstein0

you should always use a mist coat , ignore what the instructions say (i.e `no need to water down but do 10% if you have to)Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.0 -

Hello - I can't answer as I have only painted on prepared surfaces but I see you have had some good answers here. The general rule is never put decent paint as the first coat on fresh plaster - primer or a mist coat.0
