It's good but no miracle worker, though test pot coverage is above average. Cheap and available at the usual outlets fairly readily. I used one and a half 15l tubs in the tiny loft extension bedroom trying to cover nicotine stains (which had been thoroughly sugar soaped also). Should have gone with Cover Stain instead. But 3 coats in I was invested.
Ms_com loves a tester pot. Was handy actually as this is "wicker" and dries much more light yellow than the paint card or online image, so is a better fit for the yellows we wanted to pick out of the stained glass.

Having written the post above i found the Albany colour card and ‘Turville’ is way warmer than the paint mixed by brewers so i’m going to take it with me to check against the 3 doors/trim/skirting I have already painted, I know it’s never an exact match but this is way off and probably going to have to get them to mix and send me some more paint, bit fucked off at the time wasted as that’s in short supply at the moment.

Ah somebody else who spent a 1/4 of the paint budget on tester pots...
i’m using the Albany satinwood for the first time yesterday/today and it’s the nicest paint I have ever used, will not use anything else if i can help it. though they do not match to every colour so ended up picking a colour in haste over the phone and it’s a bit too cold/blue so will have to live with it.
I too have a problem wall that wasn’t plastered and have just orbital sanded with a half worn 120 disc that takes some of the random rough texture areas out but that high solid paint sounds interesting, might deal with the brush marks from 15 different test pot areas too...
