Yes it would suitable. However, an acrylic would be even better than a vinyl
emulsion, at slightly higher cost. Acrylic would normally be sold as "quick
drying eggshell" or "quick drying satin".

Ah.. thanks. I'll check these out.

Just wondering...are these oil/spirit based paints? Acrylic is water
based isn't it?.. or at least you can clean brushes in water. I was
hoping to do it on the cheap, with emulsion being cheapest. I wouldn't
mind paying a bit extra, but I won't bother with oil-based gloss that I
believe is usually used on wood.
