Actually possible, cause for paint, sometimes will need to mix with water as it might be too thick. If suay suay, got contaminated, it can be really stinky one. So for that case, bo bian will have to get new one lor.

easy wash have teflon, cannot mix with water. those that can mix with water are like those for ceiling... just normal white paint.

i chose a couple of paint from nippon. i forgot the type...i think got medifresh or something...and then some odourless stuff. all supposed to be the better grades.

i see... those matt white color for ceiling. lucky me, my painter gave me whole house white Odourless Easywash 3+1 coats, ceiling included. no wonder they gave me a nickname - piggy bank breaker. :curse:

lucky me, last time, mine all mixed liao, easily left for years and so far so good. Now all paint used up liao. some even paint tin got rusty and paint still ok :sport-smiley-004: :sport-smiley-004:

U know how to DIY then u DIY lah. I don't know how so wait for him to do for me. Hehe

since the discussion is on painting, can i check if this is true.

Painting the ceiling white for the house by default have no extra charge, but once you want to paint in another colour. There will be extra, and this is the market practise.

yes, that is the market practice but then if you have a good contractor, he might let you paint other colours for free too. market charge for EM abt $1600-$1800, so if he already charge you $2000, maybe he will let you paint the ceiling in other colours?

I spent a few days reading your blog.Your house is really nice. No wonder came out magazine. I've learnt alot thru your blog. Thanks.
