Really interested in the paint you're using for obvious (cheap) reasons ;D
What sort of prep you doing before putting on the matt emulsion ?
Cheers.

Just normal prep on a primer base , added a bit of water gave it a few coats went on a bit orange peel ish but then dried back ok the black was Blackboard paint . dabbed with a sponge , Hope this helps |

lookin good mate - yeah tell us the secret of good lacquering please. build it up slow mate , give time between coats 3/4 coats usually. dont panic if you get any runs . sometimes you can turn what ever your spraying upside down and get rid of some small runs |
