Excellent finish and coverage

My daughter painted her office in this paint. It brilliantly covered over the colour underneath with only one coat! Love the colour, a very soft beige/pink. The description was very accurate; like new plaster! Lovely Matt finish … would use again!

Fabulous

Dream paint

Tried a sample patch on the dining room wall. It was wonderful to apply, smooth flowing, no brush marks. Can’t wait to finish the whole room.

Unequalled Quality

Firstly, don’t bother trying to colour match with other makes, as you won’t get the depth of colour. I never know why people bother doing that. Love how the tones of Setting Plaster change throughout the day in our SW facing lounge. The F&B website and Instagram has so much helpful information and I used these before making my final choice.

Setting plaster for kitchen walls

I didn’t know it was possible to fall in love with a paint color, but it is!

West Facing Room - Pop of colour

The room has been transformed from feeling cold and lacking any warmth to having a bold colour which looks gorgeous in the afternoon when the sun is at the front of the house. The room feels completely different and has more personality than it did before.

Great modern eggshell

Great coverage, went on very easily and there’s wasn’t much prep work required even though the the wood skirting is at least 80+ years old

Subtly fabulous

Fabulous paint as all others we have had from you. Took me a while (years) to decide on which colour as have an orange range cooker and dark green kitchen cabinets. This colour brings everything together and with the addition of dark wood sockets and light fittings it’s just flipping fabulous! Thanks FB ❤️

Fabulous Colour
