Color changed on second use.

One first use loved the colour. Tried second coat after a week and got completely different color this time. Tin was super tight so no chance of it getting oxidised. Dejected as half of the work is in glossy green and half is dull green. Too much time and effort invested already. Not a happy customer.

Attrocious

I bought this to repaint a new gate and frame. I liked the colour, very much. When I got it home, the first thing I noticed was that the paint had separated out into 3 different colour layers. A blue layer, a yellowish layer, and a green layer. Not a problem, I will mix them. Then I applied it to freshly sanded, and primed gate frame. Lets put it this way. Even after three coats, clear water with green dye would have given a deeper and better finish. I tried returning it, but was refused because I had opened and used some of it. Even though I told them its not suitable for the purpose for which it is sold. Still refused. I only gave it one star, because I can't give it zero stars.

Not fit for purpose

Bought it ,spent lots of time sanding and priming woodwork . After 4 coats of Buckingham green I could still see the undercoat . Don't waste yr money on this rubbish. Had to go back to B and Q for Dulux weathershield ,only £10 more. I asked about a refund on the paint .not a chance .I dipped my finger in the paint to see how thick the colour is . Very thin and very poor product.Trading standards should be informed about it .

Lovely colour and easy to use!!

Nearly didn't buy this paint after reading the reviews, but so pleased that I did. Have used to upcycle garden furniture - wrought iron with wooden slates. The paint being for both metal and wood made the job much easier. Must say the colour is a shade lighter than shown on the tin, which I actually like more. It's not a thick one coat paint, but two thin coats covers lovely. Will be using on wooden planters next. Would recommend.

Very poor product

I wish I'd read the reviews of this paint before I wasted my time & money. I wanted to repaint some doors to match those previously painted with b and q's one coat paint, but this was not available anymore so went for this instead. After 1 application went straight out to a nearer competitor to buy a decent quality brand instead. I feel as though I've thrown good money straight down the drain.

Do Not Buy

After the first rain the seat was left with discoloured water stains. The paint did not flow and left brush marks. I needed 3 coats for coverage. After the paint had been wiped and dried the original plain green finish returned but that is NOT what you expect.

Garbage

This is the biggest waste of £26.00 that I have ever known. No cover, no adhesion, and an awful dirty khaki colour with no shine whatsoever. The worst paint that I have ever used.

Not Fit for Purpose

Absolute rubbish. Thin, no adhesion, and having bought a new door and lovingly primed and undercoated it, this looks terrible. Quite possibly the worst paint I have used in 35 years of decorating. I'm off to buy some Dulux or other brand for the subsequent coats. Should be withdrawn from sale.

Poor coverage; will require several coats.

I had finished a tin of the old (oil based) paint, so bought this to complete the job. The change to a water base was a poor decision by B&Q; this will barely cover the undercoat and I will need to apply 3+ coats to complete the job. With the old formula, his paint only required one coat. The change in composition basically means you need 3x the quantity required previously. Bear this in mind when comparing the price of this paint against (say) Dulux Weathershield.
