Wife wants to paint the kitchen this weekend. I'm not convinced it's needed, but she's insistent so it'll get done i guess.
The paper that's in place is that kitchen wallpaper stuff that seems to only come in squares. I've found an old photo:
I suspect it'll all require a good scrubbing down with sugar soap (or plain old warm soapy water).
Asking because if we'd have gone ahead with the living room we'd have slapped any old paint onto the new plaster & not bought something breathable. Only asking here did we end up buying the right stuff.
So will any old paint do here? Is that kitchen & bathroom paint just nonsense (as i've heard) or should that really be the only stuff that's bought? She says she'd like a slight shine to it, not matt.
Oh & something with anti-mould properties preferable.
