Yes you can, lightly sand and apply a coat of Cover stain (Zinnser) then when dry apply what ever paint you like, I would use two coats of satin (crown) but the choice is yours.

Hi , thanks for the reply, will try to give it a go with an old shoe !! and see what happens. I have now put back working away until Friday, so if I have no joy later I will post up as many details tomorrow as I can find. Thanks for taking the time to reply, Lyngarth

Hi Just got back from work to find the good lady has tired to put the heating on, but no heat. Boiler is fine as hot water is no problem and fire's up as and when its needed. I'm off for 10 days (working away) so am tiring to get some heating before I go, all I know is in by the hot...

For the lowest sheen eggshell you need look no further than Little Green paints, not the cheapest but one of the best you can get and gives a nice clean low sheen finish.

A light rub down / de-nib between coats is, in my view a good thing to do and have been doing it for the last 20 yrs.

Sandtex or Crown Stronghold Masonry paint, both very good and have been using both for many a year. Lyngarth

When you buy a prudy brush you are buying the best out there. I use nothing but and have been doing so for many years and not to bad on price.

1) Yes as long as its dry, and looks like staying so for a good few hours. 2)No 3)Crown 4)would not harm to do so on any green render.

I charge £165 per day, (8hrs) so £150 is not to bad a price.

If you have a wife and daughter like mine, then its very possible every dam light will be on. :roll:
