Good quality at reasonable price
This is such a good paint it covered my shed which had previously been done with creosote. It goes on with ease and the colour is great.

Follow the instructions - take your time, you can’t go wrong
I’ll admit I was a little worried ordering this paint for delivery. Reading the reviews there were so many depicting exploded tins arriving on the doorstep. Then there were those telling of it being runny paint, terrible coverage etc.The tin arrived with a large piece of tape over the lid, securing it in place, then it was in a heat sealed bag to catch any leaks and had cardboard moulded packaging to hold it safe in the box. The box was then packaged inside another box. It was like pass the parcel, so clearly lessons have been learned in online delivery paint orders!I’ve never gone wrong with dulux paint in the past and this has been no exception. There’s a lady on here who posted a very helpful review with a video reminder about how to sweep in an upward direction so as not to get drippy paint lines. I’ve painted a lot of things, and this was not only a good reminder but also very reassuring to know it’s down to the application of the paint not the paint itself. Thank you for posting that.My experience - utterly brilliant. I’ve used it on my wooden garage door which took the best part of three days to strip and sand in preparation - it’s all about the prep! I even hoovered and then wiped down the wood work to make sure there was no dust on the surface. This paint doesn’t need undercoat as it’s 2-in-1, and I put it straight onto the wood. In hindsight, with the age and type of wood it is, I think and undercoat would have been a cheaper option as a lot of this paint has been sucked straight into the wood. As a result I do have a patchy result after one coat. The tin warns you of this if you read the side, so it wasn’t unexpected.The garage door also has a metal edge which the paint went onto perfectly! The brush lines (if you use the sweepy-uppy method) disappeared after a few seconds and it dried totally smooth. I’m really happy about that, as I was really concerned about the metal edge.The pain is a bit smelly - I’ve got used to those non-spirit based paints so I wasn’t expecting this. But it’s certainly not anywhere near as bad as the toxic stuff I remember my dad using back in the 80s! If you’re using it indoors do it on a sunny day, start early and keep the windows open.I’m doing a second coat which I’m confident will have the results I want - a nice smooth satin finish… for the birds to poop on as soon as it’s dry!!! (Shakes fist at pesky pigeons!)I’ve got the front door to do, which will be getting an undercoat first this time, as it too is old and probably quite porous. That will avoid me having to use two coats of the expensive stuff, I’ll slap some cheaper no nonsense undercoat on first, just to make sure it looks perfect when it’s finished.Cleaning the brushes was easy peasy. I used paint brush cleaner and it took all of a few seconds of swishing in that, then a good rinse with warm soapy water. I think the brush is now cleaner than when I started!!All in all, follow the instructions, keep it ventilated, sweep upwards with your brush to work out the paint lines, take your time and enjoy the end result.

Good paint but colour is lighter then tin suggest
Colour is lighter then tin suggest, but still a very nice colour and easy to paint and quick to dry

Glade Green
A little lighter in colour than I was expecting compared to image but still a nice Cotswolds colour green. Very thick paint you’ll certainly get a workout putting this on. Hopefully it’ll last and not washout or flake off like previous brands. Time will tell.

Excellent paint. I use it for all sorts and never have any problems. It dries incredibly quickly and is lasting very well on items that are outdoors

Very good paint
Very good paint. I used it on a previously painted front door. The old paint was in a terrible state. A quick rub down and two coats of primer followed by three coats of paint. It looks brand new. The paint is very glossy and goes on well with a gloss roller.

Good paint but ....
I am a massive fan of Dulux paints and have used (and still do) them on all sorts of situations both inside and out with great results.I wanted to repaint my front door, back door and garage door, but unfortunately I had used the last of the Dulux Trafalgar Blue paint I have used to for the last 30 years and the colour is no longer available.The nearest to it is 'Oxford Blue' which is a slightly deeper blue, but that isn't a bad thing really.I have never used Weather Shield paint before but I though the name alone meant quality.I usually use the 'Professional' paint for Brilliant White Gloss and Undercoat and that IS a quality paint !I was a little taken aback when I started to stir this paint as it is 'very' thin !I carried on regardless, but as a precaution I put down a cotton backed polythene dust sheet, something I have never really used despite buying it, as I load my brush up so it doesn't drip, and have even painted on carpets without using a dust sheet for years... foolish perhaps I know.Believe me you MUST put down a dust sheet when using this paint as even with great care I ended up with about 12 blobs of paint on the dustsheet, not good.Parts of the door had the Dulux Professional White undercoat on it, but the Weather Shield did NOT cover this with one coat, another disappointment for me, as with the 'old' Dulux paints it used to cover no problem.So to sum up, it is very runny (almost like water) and the coverage is not good if you have used a primer or undercoat, I actually had to use 2 coats instead of the usual one.I very nearly only gave it 3 stars but decided on 4 because the end result was REALLY impressive, great colour with a nice deep gloss, to be honest it did look a lot better then the old Trafalgar Blue I had use for the last 30 years or so.I have bought a BIG tin of this for future use (and it was better value for money to buy the bigger tin) and I will definitely use it again, but please do be aware of the two problem areas and you will be OK.
