“I tried this paint for a first time as requested by my customer - never again, extremely hard to apply/leave nice & smooth finish, after nearly a week still a bit sticky in places.”
“Nothing like the colour card or the description. Ordered 3 colour cards of very dark blue colours from website. Description of Terrazzo was 'one of our darkest blues'. From the colour card i thought it was perfect for my woodwork. However despite applying 3 coats, it is nowhere near as dark as it should be and is quite a vibrant blue. Very disappointing because the actual interior eggshell paint is great quality.”
“Not the best paint very disappointed takes a good 4 coats or more to cover walls had to buy another 2.5 litres to get the wall to look good so worked out very expensive as 2.5 Ltrs should have been plenty .Bought for bathroom as recommend
in factory shop resistance durable Matt finding it marks very easy was expecting much better for the price . Disappointed customer”
“We used this paint on a feature wall and it now looks wonderful. However the paint seemed very thin and took 4 coats to achieve a perfect finish. Notwithstanding this we are very pleased with the end result”
“We bought this to do our front door. First let me say how beautiful the colour is: it has a luminosity and depth that is stunning and the final finish is gorgeous. But the paint itself is so thin and watery it was a really labour intensive and unpleasant thing to apply. We had used a standard undercoat (admittedly not a G&B branded one) and the paint didn’t grip it. In places it just slid off. A simple 2 coat job was streaky and sloppy so in the end we did 4 coats and even then it was still streaky. Once dried it now chips at the slightest scuff - not great for a front door that gets heavy wear and tear. I’d expect an exterior paint to be tougher and sadly this product didn’t deliver.”
“Coverage was extremely patchy even after three coats. Ended up getting the colour matched at the local diy store in a normal eggshell which went on much easier. I wouldn’t recommend this product. The wallpaper however was fabulous.”
“Second time I purchased this shade. Deep colour and the shade is exactly what I wanted. Makes my room/study look elegant with the soft furnishings.
Visitors often ask me where I purchased the paint and comment on how lovely it looks.”
