Kobra HP940 400ml Aerosol Spray Paint - Ebano

Medium spray

Great spray paint-easy to use. Fantastic coverage, will order again

I am known in our house as the spray queen! I spray everything I can. Saves getting out brushes and having to clean them too. I have recently sprayed the garage doors! I have several garden ornaments - such as model herons, and ornamental hearts, and I spray them copper, really catch the sun. I am never without a supply of colours. I even sprayed the stones in my front garden during the first lockdown as the garden centres were closed and I couldn't buy any plants. People passing by often comment.

I'm not usually one to leave reviews but felt I had to in this case as this stuff is brilliant. So much better than anything I've ever used before. The coverage is great, it doesn't want to drip like other paints and it dries in no time at all. I bought the 'Ebano' colour which, as other reviewers have commented, comes out a reddish brown (See attached image) and not the more chocolate-y colour shown in the image but it wasn't an issue for my application at least.

A bit apprehensive buying from Kobra following a spate of issues with the cans and colouring - worth checking the Kobra store for these colours before you buy - Amazon's pictures don't always reflect the actual colour of the can you'll end up with. I know this and so choose my colours based on the pallet from Kobra (use the right code). It sprayed well and covered as I expected. Sprayed in an outdoor environment and needed hours to dry - literally hours! So beware of picking up or moving items you've sprayed; for a real firm hard finish it needs a long time to set hard!

The paint didn't really match the colour shown at all. It's closer to a dark red than the brown depicted which meant the paint was pretty much useless to me. The finish was also more glossy than I was expecting. It's otherwise a functional paint just not what I wanted at all.

Color in can is nothing like the code example swatch on line. I've double checked with the Kobra site and it is exactly the same as on this sellers listing. I'm not sure if this is a one off but ebano in and on can is a very red brown. I used a number of devices to view and as picture shows there's a big difference, way more red. As far as I know the quality of product is fine

I’m highly impressed with this product, it is super simple to use. I sprayed an old wicker basket to bring it back to life and the coverage is good. It doesn’t require much effort, which was a shame because then I was looking around the house to see if there was anything else to spray! I left it outside on a warm day to dry and it took a few hours
