Thank you for sharing such kind feedback, Margaret. Clear product information and reliable delivery make a big difference, so it’s great to know everything worked well for your order.
Floor paint.
Good delivery.
Paint was water based white concrete Coovar for the edge of steps leading to a public building. It coverd easily. The finish was very bright. So far, it is wearing well. Plenty in the tin for 2 more coats in the future.

Glad to hear delivery went smoothly and the paint was easy to apply, Paul. Step edges need a clear, durable finish, so it’s encouraging to hear the Coo-Var coating is wearing well.
Great product and excellent service

Had a pricey tin of paint delivered from Rawlings. It was damaged in transport - tin arrived bent, lid off and half empty.
To be fair the courier must have really bashed it about, but the tin itself could have been packaged better.
Called Rawlings and they were very apologetic and 100% helpful. Next day I had a replacement tin. This time they went to town on the packaging. 👌
Great paint, nice to deal with.

Really appreciate the fair feedback. Damage in transit is frustrating, especially with a specialist paint order, so we're pleased the team could get a replacement out quickly. Great to hear the second delivery was better protected and the paint hit the mark.

Troublesome base layers on Dutch Barge
So I'm painting a Dutch Barge over red oxides and other paints, and asked James @ Rawlins for advice. He recommended Junolac anti-corrosive paint. This is a beautiful paint, I loved putting it on, and after really simple prep of surfaces the finish is outstanding. The Barge really pops in sky blue and cream. Brilliant!

Thanks for such a brilliant review, Andy. Sounds like a fantastic project, and great to hear James pointed you towards the right product for it. Junolac has a really nice finish when it goes on well, so it’s good to know you enjoyed using it too. Sky blue and cream on a Dutch barge sounds spot on - would love to see the finished result.

Ordered pvc paint
Ordered pvc paint. Before delivery I told them I had ordered the wrong sort. I was told if I reused delivery and it got sent back to them I still would not receive a refund or exchange
