DreamerX 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2012 bro, JB is the cheapest place compare to SG. i bought mine 6cans of 5 liter nippon odorless aircare (seems better than the odorless premium all-in-1) at rm120/5lt, while sg selling the odorless premium all-in-1 at ~S$80.

DreamerX 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2012 think you can get from any hardware shop in JB that selling nippon paint. i guess nippon paint has the price control and the price difference is about rm10/5ltr at most at different shop, at least the shops near my place in nusa bestari.

DreamerX 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2012 just pay the 7% GST if the value is more than $150/person. i'm also going to paint my old 5-room flat. based on my calculation, i need 6 cans of 5 ltr to paint my whole house, including the ceiling. still, buy from JB is cheaper than sg, provided you have car to go in jb.

I am still not sure how much paint I need. Mine is an EA about 130sqm. Read that we need 1 coat of sealer and 2 coats of paint?Appreciate ur advice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
