Did you paint in daylight?

Are you painting it a darker colour? Are you using good quality paint? Do you think that another coat would improve it? A photo might help get you advice.

I wonder if it's a new build thing. My house is barely two years old and the rooms I have painted do tend to look patchy when looked at from side on. I've used valspar and little Greene and crown paint and they all look like this. I used a brush to make the paint go further and presumed it was because of this but maybe not after all. Did you use a roller? Matt paint or with a sheen?

Well funnily enough I am planning on using laura Ashley pale duck egg for my bathroom and kitchen so I think I'll try with a roller and see if I have the same problem. Can you post any more pics, would love to see the colour a bit more.

I agree with house mad. Dulux paint is made by a paint company. Laura Ashley make clothes and homeware. Top quality paint will go on easier and give better coverage. Good luck and best wishes.

Ok think I will keep looking then, dulux trade might be worth a try. What are you going to do house mad? Another coat? Change colour?
