Spiral staircase
Delivery took 5 days which was longer than I expected these days and no dispatch confirmation email received. However, I’m very pleased with the transformation and hoping it’s as hard wearing as it’s suppose to be, time will tell. The spiral staircase took 3+ coats as the first coat didn’t go on that well but that may be due to the paint choice previously used despite sanding where we could. I also had to use a torch to check I had everywhere covered as being black it just showed as all painted but very different with the torch. I bought a 2.5l tub and have plenty left so it goes a long way.

Quality Paint.
As we had painted our white upvc windows black, we repainted our front door, previously Charleston Gray, in Pitch Black and it is just the perfect black (couldn't bear to part ways with Charleston Gray so painted the masonry with it) and as always with F&B, the quality of the paint is exceptional.

Best black paint ever. Will never purchase paint from anywhere else. It is quality. Glide is amazing. Dry down stunning. No regrets and deeply in love.

Pitch black
Love it. Was concerned it wouldn’t be sturdy enough with three dogs but it just wipes up as good as new. Was so pleased with the results of my first project that I painted my bedroom furniture with it too!

Pitch Black Dead Flat
I have painted a lot of walls and ceilings and used all different brands of paint and i have to say this the best paint I have ever used. Its kind of pricey but you get what you pay for and this is the best!
