Hmm, I not sure if the paint can be easily clean or tahan. Because during the time I checking defect and use the masking tape to mark on the wall, when i try to remove the masking tape, some of the paint peel off also.

In term of durability, all internal emulsion paint is more or less the same. It is normal that masking tape can peel off the paint if leave it there after some time.
In term of easiness to clean, then you might want to look at those "easy clean paint" such as Nippon Easy Wash.

Peel off to what extend? Can see the wall become patchy?

This seems a bit bad to me. Probably they have mixed cc powder to the paint they use.

You try to use hand to swipe the wall and see whether it is powdery? If yes, then confirm mix with cc powder already.

Is there any difference between ICI dulux and Nippon paint? My contractor say i can choose any one and the cost is similar. I have no idea which one to choose.

Is you are comparing the same grade of paint, there is not much different between ICI and Nippon.

QUOTE(ayrez7 @ Jul 11 2017, 07:54 AM)
Same here. Would like to know as well.

Also asking the rest. Any specific recommended paint for white for painting? Would like to have my condo to be bright. smile.gif and of course a few single colour painted wall as well. smile.gif

You can have a look at off white series. There are many variants of white colour.

What about Jotun paint? Is it similar to the ICI and Nippon?

Yeaa, looking the off white series. smile.gif any specific recommendations? 😊

Ya, Jotun is about the same too.
Colour wise, very subjective. But anyhow, off white would not give you a huge different no matter which you go for.

Usually use Dulux. Their paint if compare to skk or kansai is better. Or jotun or nippon also ok.
*
ICI, Kansai, Jotun and Nippon all about the same.
SKK a tad lower grade.

Brilliant white seems to appear yellowish over time easier. Is it true?
