Love this paint. Brilliant white and although expensive and thick going on at first, it does go a long way as excellent coverage. Don't know yet about its other properties as it has been so dry. Defi... See more

Hello Paul,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
We completely understand your comments about the price. Our products are designed as a premium, long-term solution, using high-performance ingredients to deliver exceptional durability and protection, so we appreciate that they're an investment.
You're also absolutely right that it's difficult to judge the long-term effectiveness of an exterior coating so soon after application. We hope that, over the coming months and years, the paint proves its value by continuing to protect your property and maintain its appearance.
Thank you again for choosing us, and we hope it exceeds your expectations over the years ahead.
Best wishes

Superb quality paint
Superb quality paint. Used the textured basecoat on a dampcourse before applying the dark anthracite.
Basecoat did a great job of covering small cracks and uneveness. We thinned the first coat of anthracite by 5% with water. The result looks great.
Will definitely use again.

Happy with the result so far
The website is very informative. The delivery was next day. We are repainting a 200 year old stone cottage, due to the variation of surfaces ie new render, bare stone (where the loose paint has been removed) & intact paint, we used the cleaner, primer & top coat as the surface dictated. The first coat was diluted as advised, so we followed all advice & the result has been excellent. It feels a quality product & is coping with the different surfaces well.

This is an excellent product. You can see it is a quality paint when brushing as it it is thicker than other brands.

Top product and brilliant service …
The paint itself is very good to work with.
It covers very well. Even now in warm weather and quick drying time I haven’t struggled with any lines through the layers. The texture coat is brilliant too.
As we had one larger order first and some primer was missing it was one phone call and immediately sent off.
Great service and I really appreciate the next day delivery.
Absolutely amazing customer service.
