Hi,
It seems Wicks only sells it's own brand of paint - no dulax or such in sight.
Is wicks master range of paint as good as they make out, or should I go to homebase for the usual Dulux I was interested in the normal matt white paint and one-coat gloss. I bought some.wicks 'non master' paint in the past, many years ago, and found it very runny and rather dire.
Find your nearest Leyland stockist.
When I worked as site supervisor at school, all the pro's used to swear by Dulux. Can anyone tell me why I shouldn't use in my house?

A few years ago we got some Johnstone's trade emulsion and it was watery and didn't cover. Got Dulux trade and it was like mayonnaise, brilliant cover.
Kalon certainly seem to make a range of trade emulsions in different qualities - the poorest stuff is very thin (typically sold as unbranded "trade emulsion") and can take many coats to cover. The best Layland branded stuff seems on par with the dulux.
I helped a neighbour paint his kitchen recently, and he had bought some own brand emulsion from Homebase. Very odd stuff - about a thick as butter, it got a nice enough finish when applied with a roller, but looked absolutely dreadful if applied with a brush (where any brush marks just set permanently into the paint!)
