I’m new to this paint, so the full curing time hasn’t passed yet. However, from what I’ve seen so far, it’s easy to mix and goes on smoothly. If you’re using it indoors, it is a messy job, so wate... See more

Excellent paint (linseed oil paint)…
Excellent paint (linseed oil paint) although not the easiest top apply! Covers wood beautifully.
Prompt service by Earles for, making, packing and delivery.
A little disappointed that the paint price increased from £60 to£72 unless than a month of purchase.

Hi Jasmin
Thanks for the review and we are delighted that you loved the paint and the quick delivery service.
As you point out prices have increased due to the increased costs for raw materials. But we do try to keep our prices as competitive as possible compared similar products, and we really think that they offer great value for money.
Regards

I probably missed it but I couldn’t see delivery info pre purchase. Would have been useful to know courier and that it was next day.
Super pleased with paint and service though.

Impressive breathable masonary paint & service
I had some questions prior to purchase which were answered personally, promptly and knowledgeably. I ordered samples followed by an order - and another as I had underestimated the amount needed (I have a grade 2 with a variety of different painted areas). All deliveries arrived promptly.
I’m so impressed with the paint. It appears very clear/liquidy going on but quickly dries with colour. We’ve only got one coat on so far due to the weather but my painter and I are very impressed - my painter is going to use it on his new (old!) cottage!
Earles paint have satisfied my painter, myself and my CO with its breathable qualities. Thank you.

Fantastic customer service
Fantastic customer service. Really appreciated. Great paint, but hard to use in sprayer ( kept clogging) but after 3 coats on rough cast render it looks lovely!

Outstanding
Possibly the most friendly and professional company I have had the pleasure to have used, I cannot recommend Earles Paint highly enough. Knowledgeable and helpful, and they also actually answer the phone unlike most companies nowadays! The paint is absolutely beautiful to work with and their colour matching service is outstanding! A true treasure in the modern world. Thankyou so much!

Easy to order
Easy to order, informative web site, including images of use of product, colours used. I selected local delivery thinking I could collect it from a participating business and that there would be further options for selection. Not receiving any I called their office. The staff member I spoke to was helpful, happy to chat, and resolved the problem easily. Product arrived intact the following day.

Ordered Brick Red
Ordered Brick Red. Followed the instructions to the letter. It went on as Orange/Terracotta but having read that it would change colour upon curing we waited a week. It's still Orange. Very very disappointed and annoyed at the time and expense wasted. Painted over it with another brand of paint as it looked absolutely awful.
In response to your reply, no there is absolutely no chance in the world that I received the wrong colour. It was labelled as Brick Red, it looked like Brick Red in terms of powder colour. It went on like Fanta Orange and stayed like that.
