I'm going to repaint my old house.

Which type of paint should I choose? ( Dulux or Nippon or Jotun )

1. Living room wall and ceiling
2. Bedroom wall and ceiling
3. Bathroom ceiling
4. Grille door for balcony
5. Kitchen ceiling
6. Laundry area ceiling

We need budget, not the expensive one.

Any suggestions?

Dulux and Nippon are premium paint. No doubt the best choice if money is not an issue.

I went for KCC. It's cheaper but some drawbacks:
Not many shades available
Quality of the paint is not on par with Dulux but still acceptable if you are on a tight budget.

Thanks. I heard somewhere in this forum.
They said Jotun better than both of the brand that you have mentioned.

If in budget just get emulsion paint

Get ready made colour only

OK. Planning to get blue for bedroom ceiling and wall.

And white to repaint bathroom, kitchen and laundry area ceiling
Repaint both living room wall and ceiling

Budget about RM 100 - RM 200

Bought TOA paint today for tv wall. Rm75 for 5 liter before gst

After GST?

My whole house already 20 years plus.

Need to re-paint.

Just get normal emulsion paint. Any of the 3 brands are about the same in term of quality and cost.

Volume different?

Quality is the same?

For Nippon 500L is lesser or more?

Since I checked Dulux have either 1L or 5L.

Thanks for your advice.

Dulux and Jotun no problem with the capacity?

OK. Thanks for tips.

I will follow your advice.

Will check by shop by shop.

Thanks again.

OK. Where can I find the big shop?

In my neighborhood, got a few shop have paint brand name. ( Mainly hardware shop )
White color for living hall ceiling and wall. Including kitchen ceiling, laundry area ceiling and bathroom ceiling.

Blue color for bedroom wall and ceiling.

Thanks and big support for you.

Ok. Then you need to survey a few big shop.
You ask people paint or paint your self?
Normally contractor will know where get cheaper paint.
Ask friends too.

We buy the paint ourselves and we ask people to paint.
We cover the price for paint.

The price different should be about the same.
You may need to check a few shops, coz different shop have their own discount on certain brand. Something like main distributor for a particular brand at a particular shop.

Not sure wether it's true that mosquitoes are attracted to blue colour.

Mosquito attract which color?

Dulux ICI vs Nippon, which one is better/?

Same same.

Thanks all for the suggestions.

Now going up to use Dulux as the painter suggested this brand.

Dulux Pentalite for bedroom, hall and kitchen wall

Maxilite Plus White for ceiling.
