No, but I do find eggshell is very difficult to keep clean, even from grubby hands on doors.

Yes I'd imagine so
Thanks pj

The eggshell would not be suitable for floors. They sell a floor paint which is tougher to withstand additional wear and has a 40% sheen to make it easier to keep clean.

I would be wary of buying paint on eBay. It is a perishable product and has to be stored correctly. You won't know if it's been stuck in a shed for months.

Sadolin wood stain

Paint will last up to 10 years outside
Down side takes quite a while to dry
