### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product

Really good gloss mix well before use thanks

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bright white colour
*by N***E on 26 April 2025*

I was pleasantly surprised by this paint, I've only ever used shops own cheap brands which were very tacky and had a strong odour but this paint had hardly any odour, it's a bright white colour and it covers really well, it doesn't go sticky and it dried pretty quick. When washing the brushes the paint came off easy and didn't stick to the brushes. My only problem was it did drip quite a bit but that might just have been me putting too much on the brush. Overall it's a good paint, I've ordered more to finish my house and I definitely won't be going back to buying cheap own brands.
