Following on from the Watchdog programme two weeks ago, last night’s programme gave an update on the ‘wall odour phenomenon’ or smelly paint problem.

Watchdog reported that they have been contacted by lots of people regarding the problem, but highlighted the claim from Crown paints that it was an industry wide problem – by filming a homeowner in Gloucester who has exactly the same problem with her walls smelling of cat wee, but her walls had been painted with Dulux paint.

There are also statements from Crown, Dulux, the PRA (Paint Research Association) and a statement from the BCF (British Coatings Federation)
