The Dulux "Once" paint dried horribly – sanded it down lightly this evening and going over with normal gloss brilliant white tomorrow night for a smoother slicker finish!
Penny, I have only used Dulux "Once" once... about 15 years ago when we were "tarting up" the house in Headingley to sell it... we had stripped pine doors... but the frames were white and showing signs of wear... so I decided, having read the tin.... that "Once" would do the job neatly and quickly.
