Hi all,
Just started to paint my hallway, quick freshen up ready for Xmas, and i'am using vinyl paint. Is there any way to prevent the dragging effect on the walls?
Cheers.
Yes the brush is a fine one. Didn't realise you could thin a vinyl; doesn,t that ruin the moisture resistance...?
It's a kitchen and bathroom paint with a 'mid sheen', goes on just like vinyl. oop's had heating on.

As my hallway is narrow, it helps me in keeping the walls clean, having a ten year old son an'all.
Is it ok to dilute then, say 15-20% water? it would help in applying as the walls were artexed by previous owner and i could use a roller instead of a brush. I scrapped the surface of all the peaks (worse than knives) but still left with the moon surface effect (who put the word art in artex ).
If you already have the paint then you might as well use it up...I wouldnt thin it by anymore than 15% though.
If you need to buy more then I'd recommend acrylic eggshell...its more of less the same thing but flows better.
Medium woven pile roller sleeve will be fine for Artex..well unless its anything like my first attempt (and last) at artexiing which made the kitchen walls of a former girlfriend look like a cave!
