Hi All,

Planning to help a special need home to paint their house. Any suggestion on what sort of paint to use?
Like not too expensive but super quality that can tahan many years type?
Need suggestions for inside and outside of the house.
Thanks in advance!

Most paint can be used but not those super cheap. Paints problems mostly caused by workmanship. Most people trying to dilute with water. It is not recommended.

Most paint faded easily are caused either by mixed too much water or painted single coat only.

So, we shouldn't dilute the paint?? Any brand recommended?
The special need home is quite far away from KL.
We went to visit last Friday, there's like a small shop selling Jotun stuff.
Are they any good?

shouldnt dilute as it will weaken the adhesive, shin, and colour fading.
recommended paint = nippon, jotun, scisson, par..budget tight = colourland OD paint ..but not recommended

most important is surface preparation. make sure no dust and oily surface to receive paint.

2nd thing is undercoat is important.

recommended coating
1 coat of undercoat
2 coats of finishing coat. (wait till 1 coat dried only apply 2nd coat)
