Hi All I've just put a coat of Dulux 'Durance - durable and washable' silk emulsion on a couple of interior walls. I'd previously lined the walls with heavy-ish duty textured lining paper. I thinned the paint slightly beforehand (5% or so) and used a good quality synthetic brush.
Having dried, the walls are now showing brush marks, something I've never had problems with before (eg. we recently painted other walls with the same lining paper with Crown 'Breatheasy' matt emulsion - fine).
I've read elsewhere that these modern fast-drying emulsions can be susceptible to showing brushstrokes. Advice seems to include putting (eg. a second coat) on with a roller and then flattening with a good quality brush, and/or using a 'paint conditioner' such as Floetrol (never heard of this until now). Any comments on these ideas, or other suggestions?
Thanks a lot J^n
