Not much... how many hours of your precious free time will you have to spend on that? €1,300 savings for, for example, 40 hours of work. That would make €32.50 per hour in this example. Honestly, my hour of free time costs more, significantly more.

I once had a datasheet sent to me for the toom own brand (or was it even Renovo?). It actually said Brillux on it. On the other hand, Brillux can also deliver different qualities. In my humble experience, products from the building trade are generally of higher quality (often meaning easier to work with) than the end consumer products from the hardware store. I wouldn’t want to save on the material anyway. Along with the paint, there is also the tool. And the auxiliary stuff (masking, padding, scaffolding). You get that for free, but also set up and taken down? Whether this is a good deal for you, only you can know ... I would gladly pay 2000 euros, but I’m not you. Maybe you should ask again whether the credit really should only be 2000 euros. Seems low to me, but it will also be due to the circumstances.

Why not apply the plaster with color? Saves painting and there are no stains.

Yes, that is the manufacturer's specification,
with a double coat the paint costs me just under €400, plus primer and material. Minus 20%, so I think between €500-600.

You just tape off the windows completely.

That was my main thought whether the private label Renovo filled by Brillux has a lower quality or not.

Personally, I can imagine that this might really be the case, but I think it is still far better than the DIY store paints that existed before the private labels were filled by well-known manufacturers.
I'm really torn on this. Nowadays, as I said, it is common practice to fill or package the same quality under private labels. See in the grocery market, for example.

I can only explain the €2000 like this. If you buy a turnkey house today, you can remove certain services from the total purchase price and do them yourself. Unfortunately, the equivalent is not really worth what it should be. Of course, the company still makes some profit from it. It’s different, of course, if, for example, you only have the shell built and then weigh whether to have individual jobs done or not. It’s worth doing a lot yourself!

No, we build the scaffolding ourselves, no problem. Sure, it takes some time but I’ll write more about that below.

:

Yes, you are of course completely right. Free time is very valuable.
However, I like to take the time simply because I enjoy doing the work myself and because I can save roughly €1300 to €1500 regardless of whether it takes 30 or 40 hours. But everyone sees that differently and that is fine.

I think I might have conveyed my main thought a little incorrectly or not at all. It was about hoping that someone has experience with, for example, the Renovo private label and what they think about whether it could still have good quality since it is filled by a well-known manufacturer.

My predecessors are surely right. For the first coat, you definitely have to paint twice. So you will certainly need 90 liters of silicate paint. In my company, I calculate 13 professional minutes per m² for priming and two coats. So you will need at least 17 minutes, that would be about 60 hours of work and at least 800 euros for cheap silicate paint. We calculate at least 20 euros per m² for priming and two coats of paint. Seen from this perspective, the 2000 euros would be a bargain.

As a self-employed person, you multiply that by your (net) hourly rate and compare the result with 2000 euros. That’s how the homo economicus would do it, but of course you can also paint your facade just for the fun of it. Renovo or not, I would buy the paint at a specialist retailer, probably the Brillux product. I might lean towards the extreme there :P.
