I've only ever used the water based one. I try to avoid solvent based wherever possible.
For the woodwork probably Zinsser BIN Aqua as a primer followed by tinted undercoat matching the top coat and 2 top coats. So little greene undercoat if it's a LG top coat.
That's belt and braces and there's plenty of different options that would get you there. Quality of the ply/woodwork would make a difference too. I do sometimes do different things depending on the surface I'm working with.
I'd be surprised if you need 10lts for the cills/window surrounds etc. 2.5lts would normally cover a lot of that kind of thing.

Sorry, I mean I’m looking to paint exterior cills/lintels/capitals etc on a Victorian house, with AllCoat. Just not sure whether to use water or solvent-based…
Would also love a recommendation for painting bare, new interior woodwork (ply/tanalised timber etc), matt finish…
