touching up old paint work

[dave1975]

Hi All,

I'm selling the house & am looking at touching up some of the 5+ year old paint work with egg shell (doors skirting, arc etc). There are a few chips & marks here & there & it would be nice to get it back to a nice standard without having to paint 10 doors & yards of skirting board/arc. If I was to touch up with brand new brilliant white egg shell, it will stand out like a sore thumb so wondered if you lot had any tips on making this the easiest job possible.

Cheers

You cant i'm afraid touch up 5 year old paintwork, it will stand out like a sore thumb.

It will all have aged at the same time and to paint bits of it will show a mile. As theDec says its all or nothing really im afraid.

I suppose you could just use Dulux.
That should do it.

Don't take any notice of the above.

The Dulux has worked a treat.
