The paint is mainly aimed at reducing the chances of condensation forming on walls where warm air meets cold.
Polysterene is more or less the same...you wont notice any difference in room temp..plus the walls can be damaged easily.

consider that loft insulation is usually 150mm to 250mm
Cavity wall about 50mm
and the paint is probably less than 0.5mm
not going to make much difference.
If you were thinking of a solid wall, you might consider cladding it, with f/glass batts under the cladding.

Cheers for replies and thoughts of the paint, I was hoping for some miracle answers like yes I've used t and its great. etc.
Cladding wouldn't work as it would make the new windows look odd as the cill would nearly be covered.
