Re-using

Used before 5 years ago - when the paint was branded under its old name. It has done a good job in the Cornish weather and now painting some more of the house. It prevents algae growth to a certain extent, more so than previous emulsion paints and the algae is easy to jet wash off.

Excellent and still the same quality

I have used Snowcem for years and had a bit of a concern with the rebranding in case the product was not the same. The product is exactly the same, good quality, same colour (white) and delivery was on time. If I have any dislike it is that I could not buy in the quantity that I had previously bought. Previously it was possible to buy in much larger quantities.

The helpful chap on the phone answered all my questions about the suitability of the masonry paint for a retaining wall before I purchased. Really pleased with the coverage and quality of finish. Wish I had found this paint sooner, would have saved a lot of mistakes!

It was the personal touch that sticks out

It was the personal touch that sticks to mind after placing the order online I still received a callback to make sure everything was as I required before shipping.
It's my first time using this company I will be back.
