S Snail Guest 15 May 2005 #1 Hi, I am planning to repaint my kitchen and I haven't much painting experience. I have some questions ; Should I use an undercoat ? Should the topcoat be oil or water-based ? Should I use a special anti-condensation paint ? Any advice appreciated. Snail.

As Extopia says something water based kitchen and bathroom paint possibly [broken link removed] might be good but definitely nothing oil based.
