For the baby's cot - still not got round to doing that yet.

Water based gloss? I know there are fancy organic paints, is there anything we can get at B&Q/homebase etc?

Have some blue and/or White left over...may even be organic and vegetable based (I wish I was making this up) and cost £40 per litre my wife and I had a chat about that when I found out the price
Any use?

B&Q sell plenty of water based gloss paint - dries fairly quickly and don't think the finish is as good as oil-based but I use it for all the glosswork in the house.

Lancashire but as it is VOC free it can be posted I think as it is not volatile....clearly my wife will have the final say though!
