They definitely didn't put any preservatives in it. Paints with no chemical to preserve to preserve it would spoil and smell within a week.
With good preservatives, it would last for 3 months to a year depending on the type and quantity used.

abouzaid:
can one build a four bedroom all en suite bungalow with two and half million or less? I'm doing a cost analysis and it's looking possible from my analysis. what's your views on that? i would give my analysis later after hearing some of your views. my labourers would be sourced exclusively from the north where labour is extremely cheap and the house would not include any fancy works. details later but lets hear your views first.

Start first

Good review!

Okay Sir, thank you so much... 🙏

Mind at rest, thank you so much 🙏....

Every material use in paint is called chemical including even the plastic the only thing that keep paint from not smelling is preservative.

A standard emulsion without preservative is expected to be smelling within a week.

A high-quality satin with no preservation is expected to be smelling within one month
Etc.

Akerewe:


U mean 4 bedroom flat or 4 bedroom en suit?
With foundation? 2.5mili? Well like someone said, start first. U mean with roofing or to lintel alone? I don't know how u want do am oo but am sure e no go reach oo!

Let's say,

Digging of foundation =50k cheapest
Blocks 350×3200pcs= 1,120,000
Cement 1000bags ×4500=360,000
Granite 10 tons = 140,000
Filling red sand 50 tons = 100,000 plus laborers
Dues , local government, area boys, Baale, town planning, foundation receipt from the community, minimum & cheapest 300,000k
Sharp sand 15 tons = 80k
Soft sand 15 tons = 60k
Carpenter foundation & lintel = 150,000 cheapest
Workmanship to lintel 200,000 cheapest
Water 50k
Local Iron bars, iron bender & accessories for lintel = 300,000k minimum
And so on and so forth........





Pls if it's possible, ur analysis is needed Nd also the landmark location of the project for reference

That post was made 8years ago and I think it was possible then...

Sure it's even more good.
But it's advisable the wall should be screeded Or well sandpaper and prime before applying Value paints satin.

Hmmmm

Rather use matte or flat for room,satin has a lil shiny sheen.

Lemme explain the major various sheen to you.
Flat- used for painting the ceiling mostly,it doesn't contain any shiny sheen at all,it doesn't bounce light at all.
Matt- mostly used for living and bedroom wall painting,it does not shine too.
Satin-it shine a little after application on the wall,you see it in banks
Gloss-mostly used in the kitchen tho,it is super shiny after application.

Good points sir.



But you see satin and silk is always advisable in interior use either bedroom or sitting rooms. The most important thing the world should be screed so that it will come out with a good finishing.

Matt and WEATHERSHIELD his advice on exterior painting.
But in a situation where a customer wants something due Matt can be used in interior as well.

Hello my good evening here

EgunMogaji2:


Thanks but I’ll . This penny wise pound foolish has caused some to loose their houses and lives in some situations.

I’m not using no name Chinese off brands in my house. Let alone finance the crap. I’ll rather light candle.

Paying small small does not mean the brand is fake. This is more like trust thing, we wouldn’t have asked you to pay small small if our brand wasn’t good.

redgem:
Good evening everyone... Please do screeding paint spoil? I bought materials down only to be told that the paint will spoil within a week.

No, as long as it's sealed. (it can't spoil within a week)

I have kept screeding paint for more than a year and it was still intact.

acorntree:

Yes please.

You can screed, for even better result ✅️
