Stunning paint!

A user of F&B I thought I’d give this ago after readings reviews, as the same paint could be used for both walls and woodwork. After a little mix up with the sample pot, I received the correct paint in Stockholm birch, sorted out promptly by Place Paints. Completed painting our ceiling and chimney breast I can honestly say it goes on like cream. Great coverage and finish is perfect. Looking forward to painting the walls in their Vancouver Grove to complete our project.

Really great paint, usually would go for a F&B but thought I'd give this a go based on the price and colour, it was a great choice solid colour, went on easily and colour is ace.

Really impressed

I’ve used it in my own home and on interior design projects at work, and it’s had amazing feedback across the board. We chose it for being pet-friendly, and the coverage was excellent - we only needed one coat in our lounge. Fast next-day delivery was a big bonus too. Will definitely be using it again and would recommend to anybody looking for a super high quality, neutral Matt finish without the price tag.

Won’t be going back to B&Q or Wickes!

The matt finish is genuinely flat, nothing like the slight sheen you get with cheaper paints. My partner has asthma and the low odour made a real difference. Already ordered Devon Pebble for the hallway.

Will definitely be buying again

I used this colour for my kitchen and dining area and it’s really nice! Neutral but adds some warmth to the rooms. I was also impressed with how a little really goes a long way! It’s so easy to use and considering I’m not a professional painter, I actually really enjoyed doing the job because of how easy the paint makes the process. Will definitely be buying again.
