The best paint I've ever used.

We ordered paint from Craig and Rose and through no fault of theirs and no fault of ours we had a mismatch in colour with one tin out of the three we ordered. Now I accept that in life things don't always run smoothly but the real measure of a good company is how their customer service people deal with any issues. We spoke with a lady called Allison who could not have been more helpful. She sorted out the problem for us and went way beyond what you could reasonably expect from a company for one tin of paint. It wasn't a massive or expensive order but we were teated like a valued customer. So to get to the point of a paint review, the paint is gorgeous, easy to apply and dries (gloss at any rate) looking like it's still wet. We will certainly be buying from then again in the future. If I could give ten stars I would.

Poor paint, poor service

The first tin of paint that you sent was old and clumped throughout the tin. Despite reminders I have still not received a replacement.

When we opened the tins

When we opened the tins, paint had not mixed and looked more like raspberry ripple ice cream!

Stunning colours that look vintage

Stunning colours that look vintage and leave a depth to the room that ordinary paints just don't have.
The delivery took a little while, just over a week, however the pain was packaged well and arrived in perfect condition.
I used 2 colours in my lounge, Camisole Pink and Persian Rose. Both colours are absolutely gorgeous. The pain went on like a dream - it's so creamy and rich, I don't think I'd go back to using standard paint anymore.
