Which satinwood?

Doing some house rennovations and I've been using Zinsser 123 Primer on the doors and skirting boards etc which has been great. But I then used the Zinsser allcoat satin on top and I don't think it looks great, pretty patchy to be honest. Any recommendations for a good satinwood that won't yellow over time?

Zinsser PermaWhite

Cheers. It says self priming, but would you say it's better to still use the 123 first?

Be aware this is a latex-based waterproof bathroom / wet locations paint and is quite shiny. I've used perma white in my bathrooms and it is great, but I wouldn't personally use it as a woodwork paint.

Thanks, I'll take a look. I've got 2 bathrooms to do and a bedroom.

Zinsser PermaWhite user here as well. I use 123 under but you don't need to.

is that in bathrooms etc. or in normal rooms as well? I've not had much joy with Dulux products in the past so I try and avoid them and use something like Zinsser
