Paint for hallway

Any
Posts: 7,957 Forumite


Hi everyone,
Can you please advise?
I need very very quickly buy a paint for our hallway (decorator coming earlier than thought).
I want the durable one that you can wipe off scuff marks off.
And it HAS to be from B&Q as I have £200 voucher to purchase them.
I always used Dulux Endurance, never in past had a problem.. However, we moved out of the house within a year of painting, so the endurance is not that tested! But they seem to be discontinuing them? At least the Natural Calico at B&Q seems to be very low price online.. And all Endurance paints seems to be discounted.
I used Valspar bathroom for the bathroom because Dulux didn't have the colour I wanted. I was happy with it, I have to say, I painted white and then good coat of the colour I have chosen (light colour, just off white really) and it needed just quick roll over with second coat.
But for the hallway (premium) paint I have read mixed reviews.
What other paint, that I can buy at B&Q, would you recommend?
Thank you
Also please best paint for wood. Lots and lots of wood to paint! White gloss. It's first paint on new wood.
Thank you!

Dulux Easycare:)0 -
So do you think that the Endurance is just being renamed to easycare?0
-
And anyone tried it and can recommend it?0

Aren't all these easy-care, stain-busting, child-proof paints just silk?0

No, they sell them in matt0

Endurance is that not the domestic version of Trade Diamond?
Using it on woodwork(wanted matt) holding up so far(2y+), a few scratches on a window sill, doors fine, skirtings don't get knocked so still like the day it was done.0 -
If Endurance is being discontinued woth seeking out discounted stock, most shed like to clear them quick once the new stuff arrives.0
