Was wondering if any one had used Indicoat paint. You know the stuff that
goes on pink (so you can see where you have painted), but then dries
white. B&Q has it reduced from £30 odd to £10 for 10l I was wondering if
this price drop was because it was crap and no-one was buying it or
whether everyone was just afraid to use it .

It's crap so I wouldn't bother. I used it on a cieling, a white cieling.
B&Q
mislead people by suggesting it goes on pink and dries white. It was
nothing
like stated on TV adverts years ago - they showed it as pink. The paint is
WHITE in the tin with a tiny tiny hint of pink, hardly noticable unless you
use a really bright light to see which bits you have painted!
It did give a bright white finish and has lasted a few years, but the "goes
on pink"
bit is a complete lie. You would be better buying a good quality white
paint
and using a light. Fresh paint always covers well anyway.
I don't rate it, it's certainly NOT worth £30 and side by side with a tin of
Dulux for example, I know which I would buy.
