Amazing quality paint. So easy to apply and dries very quickly. Fantastic coverage. No odour. Brilliant

High quality, goes really well on the walls, good amount for the price, easy to wash off tools

All good...

This is my first foray into water based paints for wood and I'm pretty happy with it. The main benefits for me are, no odour and the brushes are easy to clean. Oil based paints stink. There's no getting away from that, but I still prefer the final smooth finish of a good thick oil paint. But times have changed. These paints are easier on the body from a breathing point of view and not having to use solvents to clean brushes in one of the biggest draws of these new paints. I can also sleep in the room the same night. It dries quite quickly so I can put on a decently thick coat. I've switched to a reasonably soft brush which gives me a better smooth finish. Working in warm weather means the paint dries on the brush quite quickly but the beauty is, I can rinse the brush and start again. If the paint in the tin gets too thick, I can water it down a tiny bit, depending on what I need. This paint was recommended by my professional painter who is doing my hall, stairs and landing. Easy to use, gives a nice thick coat (obviously depending on how thick you paint it) but I've had no runs, which is another hallmark of oil based paints. I have the white which gave me a good colour base for my white top coat on skirting and window sills. It's not cheap but getting a good quality paint is definitely worth it in the long run.

Found this paint when I needed to paint an mdf bookshelf. Does a great job and easy to apply and goes a long way. This is the 2nd tin I have bought. Very pleased..

Great quality easy to apply and is great preparation for the gloss.

It goes on really nicely.. I sanded a TV unit top (solid wood) down and then applied this with a roller.. the roller left a slightly rough texture so after 48 hours I wanted to sand it back a little to make it smoother for another coat with a brush.. it clogged the sand paper over and over and came off in little soft rolls as opposed to paint dust like you would have expected. I sanded by hand so no friction softened the paint.. I pealed some of the paint off the clogged sand paper and you could feel how soft it was.. like it hadn't fully cured. This was 48 hours after 1 coat in a warm environment. Not sure I'll use again.

This is excellent primer undercoat for painting bare wood. It does dry quickly so apply quickly and avoid overpainting. A second coat may be required for complete opacity. A light rub down with fine sandpaper when it's dry and it's ready for gloss paint.

This primer is really good!! I used only a little over half a can, 2 thick coats with smaller roller on my really old ugly bathroom door. No smell, good quality, fast drying, and does not smell. In 2nd pic, I saw I needed to paint another coat bottom portion and the door looked perfectly even afterwards. Now I’m debating if I should just leave it with this primer because it looks like regular white paint! :D Good temporary fix until I repaint my hallways. I finally repainted this door because it was an eye sore for years. I just never had the motivation to do it. Very happy with the results.

La peinture fait exactement ce qu’elle dit sur l’étain. Je ne pensais pas qu’il y avait une odeur particulière. Certainement achèterait à nouveau.

Image in ad is misleading. Make sure you read the volume - the can is tiny

Excellent coverage price nice also

One coat of this primer was all I needed. Worked great. Dried fast. Painted the final color and everything looked smooth. I only bought a pint and I only had to use 1/4 of it. I would buy this again in the future.
