Review: Great product 👍 Awesome decking se - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brilliant for Decking – Seals and Protects Perfectly! I'm currently in the middle of building a deck, and I bought this Everbuild Black Jack 901 Bitumen Paint to seal and protect the deck joists and posts before installation — and honestly, I'm seriously impressed. The coverage is excellent. A single 5L tin went further than expected — it goes on smoothly and dries to a tough, durable coating. It sticks really well to the timber and gives me real peace of mind knowing that the structural parts of my decking are protected from moisture and rot. Especially in the UK where the weather is unpredictable, this is a game changer for long-term durability. I also liked how quickly it dries for a bitumen-based product. It’s thick but manageable, and I was able to get two good coats on without waiting all day. It’s perfect for anyone wanting to do a job properly — especially if you care about the longevity of your project. Highly recommend for anyone working on decking or any timber that will be exposed to the elements. Would definitely buy again and already looking at other Everbuild products to use on future DIY projects.
Review: The King of shed roof paints. Two coats is plenty. - Absolutely the best stuff for reproofing your shed roof. I now do it every other year when i am repainting the rest of the shed and i expect that i am adding years onto the life of it. Do not listen to claims of 5-10 years for shed protection. Do it every other year and your shed will serve you well. If this review serves anyone this is the advice you should take away, wear OLD clothes when painting with this and disposable gloves. It will ruin your clothes and is a royal pain to get out from under your nails. Also use cheap paint brushes as you wont be using your brush again once you have finished. All of that should tell you that this stuff lasts. If it washed off easily, then the rain would just as easily remove it and your roof would eventually succumb to leakage. It just does not come off. It does have a strong odour but you're using it outside and once it dries it is fine. It is well worth the investment.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everbuild Black Jack Bitumen Paint. It's good and it certainly does the job.
*by P***O on 30 November 2025*

If you want a liquid mastic that will protect a surface from water ingress, you'll struggle to get better than this stuff. I wanted to waterproof the part of some timber posts which would end up below ground level before they were installed. Although painting the Everbuild Black Jack Bitumen Paint onto rough timber isn't as easy as painting gloss paint, if you just switch off your brain and get on with it, the end result is worth the hassle. Try to keep it off your hands and clothes as it is messy. The consistency is fortunately not golden syrup level but a thick semi liquid which, if applied with a loaded brush, has a good covering power, you need to make sure you've got a ground sheet of sorts to catch the odd drip or have some white spirit handy to clean up the mess. I'm going to try some on my wheel barrow where the paint has flaked off, got to be better than it is at present. I've used other Everbuild products in the past and their Black Jack Thick Mastic sealer for roof repairs or tanking is worth a thought as well. All in all, if you want to waterproof your timber, get some, you won't be disappointed.
