Remember though theres a difference between thickness and body..
If you turn a tin of retail dulux or crown upsdie down it often stays in the tin like a lump of jelly...people assume cos its like that it must be 'thick'...it isnt, its wahts called 'false body' to give the paint better brushability...stir it up and it turns very liquid.
Trade paint has more real body...more pigment..which tends to give it a dry feel...especially dulux and glidden
I have just painted my staircase natural calico same colour as before but this time I have used Dulux Trade Paint, using a roller. I did not water the paint down. Was this a mistake and should I be doing this as every time and if so how much should I water it down by, Thanks.

Thick paint solution sometimes makes thicker coats which do not dry easily and even makes the place unattractive. Use appropriate amount of water if paint is too thick. Always remember if you are using water in paint then add adequate amount in whole paint otherwise you will have a little bit difference in color shade.
