Hello folks,

Currently wanna paint my terrace house with paint.
But stuck with sisson/Nippon/ICI paint choice.

Just ask opinion of people who have used the above paint
and pls share? Tq.

I assume you are referring to internal walls? I only used ICI before (and now) so I can only comment on ICI. I used ICI Pearl Glo - rose white and was very happy with Pearl Glo. It was quite easy to clean and last for years. Now I am using Pentalite Easy Clean as Pentalite is about 20-30% cheaper than Pearl Glo. Of course Pentalite is not as reflective as Pearl Glo but now I have very bright LED so it is not an issue.

Hmmm thanks bro...
I now holding the ICI broshure and seen the color
U mention.
It's for exterior and interior... What price for that
Glo and pentalite?

These are some of the prices that I got earlier (abt 5 mths ago) You may need to check with ths shops for their latest pricing.

For internal walls:

Nippon Odour-less - RM 120/ 5 lit
Nippon Spot-less - RM 100/ 5 lit
Nippon Satin Glo - RM 90/ 5 lit
Nippon 3 in 1 - RM 110/ 5 lit
Nippon Vinilex Fresh RM 88/ 5 lit

Jotun Stax Matt - RM 80/ 5 lit
Jotun Majestic - RM 95/ 5 lit
Jotun Majestic Optima - RM 110/ 5 lit
Jotun Pearl Silk - RM 95/ 5 lit
Jotun Majestic Matt - RM 95/ 5 lit

For Doors, timber frames, grilles, etc

Jotun Gardex Gloss & Matt - RM 110/ 5 lit

I do not use ICI paint as they are very much overprice. Quality is also not on par with others.
About 10 years ago, maybe they are one of the better paint. Unfortunately, it is not so since these few years...
I used ICI paint 10 years ago but have since revert to using Nippon & Jotun.

My 2 sen...

1. pearl glo
- RM 95 / 5 lit
- RM 180 / 10 lit

where to get pearl glo @ RM95 /5 lit ?

i went 1-2 shops at Cheras area... also quote me RM95 / 5 lit.. perhaps i'm ask for white color la..
somethn wrong?

I heard that price of paints were going up soon when I bought some cans of paint 3-4 months ago

mine RM5 more the seller told me they receive the price increase from AkzoNobel and wanted to charge me extra 10

everything going up except our salary

Personally, I'm more towards Nippon for interior.
If you have a budget, go for Nippon Air Care for indoor. Price around RM120/5L or RM36/1L. It's the only paint in the market that can absorb formaldehyde (don't know marketing gimmick or not, but I kinda believe it ). The finishing is Eggshell (which is my preference) & washable. I'm satisfied so far & no smell even during painting.

For exterior, both ICI & Nippon offer almost same benefit. It's more on personal preference. Again, if budget permit go for the one can reflect solar heat. So, you can reduce heat penetration through walls but still your roof is the main source for heat.

don't try skk paint,wasting money. more than 5 layer still can see shadow of old paint.

probably you thin them too much with water. Most manufacturer recommend not more then 10% if I am not mistaken

what is skk paint?

skk paint from japan no water added, open and use only. too watery compare to ICI paint. machine mixed to match ICI color.

recently repaint i try colourland..not sure how good it is..but i like it more than my previous ici pearl glo in term of quality..

ICI paint quality has gone down in recent years. I have also stopped using them

So ICI paint quality is not justified by it's price?
Btw bought Nippon weather bond 20litre n satin glo.

This is from my personal experience.
I would avoid using those satin glo, pearl glo, etc. Those that gives a gloss finish to walls.
Using this type of paint will expose all the unevenness and defects in the wall.

So, unless your wall is very evenly finished and no patching up, etc the it would look nice.
Alternatively be prepare to skim coat the whole wall before painting with these gloss finish paints.
Even if you skim coat the wall, the finishing must be even, else it is back to square one...

how much u get?

I jz get mine:
Exterior
Weatherbond solarreflect RM460/20 lit
Nippon Acrykuc 5170 Sealer RM250 / 20lit
