Has anyone used this! If so what did you use to apply it - roller, brush, lambs wool applicator!
I have applied with a small foam roller in a small room (2m x 2m) but it dried so quickly that I couldn't keep the 'edges' wet so you can see where I have cut in around the skirting boards. Just wondering if need to use a different method when I tackle the bigger rooms.

I like it because you can get two or more coats on in a day at this time of year.I use a short nap roller for a satin finish. i have found that any discrepancies in colour seem to merge after about a month.

Agreed, being able to re-coat in 3 hours is a big bonus and minimal fumes. It just seems harder to apply than oil based, especially the first coat on bare wood.

There is always a problem with acrylic anything drying to fast in hot weather. You can get a product from Wattyl and prob all the other major paint manufacturers to slow the drying time down a bit.I am not sure if you can use it on Polyurethane. Failing that do your painting in the cooler part of the day.I think the time of the day is the problem. Cheers

Gives a great finish after 3,4 coats with light sanding in between. The first coat dry (and soak) fast, but the next coats are much easier to apply.
also, if you do cutting and rolling on your own, do only one wall at the time in this weather.
