    Tried others but Dulux Weathershield gets my vote.

    Was a contractor for many years and have used them all.I did a housing scheme 10 years ago with Sandtex and it still looks good today.Its better than weather shield in my opinion

    Yellow is going out of fashion. Some nice greys out there. Or teal, with a hint of raspberry.

    couple of pro painters said they used it and tended to fake alot quicker than the other top brands

    was going to try magnolia with peat but maybe that gone out of vogue too, have a 22 meter wall to do too

    Colourtrend is the best exterior paint. It costs only a few quid more than Dulux. Dulux is no longer a good paint. I find it blisters and bubbles nowadays.

    A 10 litre bucket of coloured Colourtend is about 65 euro.
