Dulux Walls & Ceilings Tester Paint, White Cotton, 30 ml

Easy to use + good, clean white colour. Handy for paint touch ups.

This is perfect for covering anything on those white plaster walls in UK new build rentals. The colour dries down to almost the exact paint color. I even had the area on the wall just above my sink completely peeled and it covered it perfectly. I just had to sand the old paint slightly to smooth the surface. Of course the old paint tone is slightly more beige. But not noticeable at all. The consistency of the paint is very thick and full bodied, it's great quality. It's thick enough to fill 'scabs' or deep scratches in paint sort of like a plaster would. I'm buying a second sample now to fix paint on moving out.

I did the walls and ceilings of two rooms with this easy care range and it is good paint for amateurs. I would use it again unless I wanted a really fancy-looking finish (but then I would hire a decorator).The good:Widely available if you need to pick up another tin in the same colour.Fairly pricedWell packaged - leakage is almost impossible.Easy-open tins with easy-close plastic lidsNo strong smellNo stirring needed unless separatedGloopy - with care with the roller you can completely avoid drips.Quick dryingFair obliteration - 2 coats on lighter bases and 3 on darker.Easy cleanup of tools although I binned my rollers.Didn’t leave obvious transitions between cutting in areas with the brush and the rolled areas.The not-so good:Gloopy with the brush - harder to spread around although giving it a good stir in your bucket just with the brush helps a little bit.13sqm coverage feel like a best case - I used more of this than I expected to need.Adequate but not superb finishI can’t comment on durability/mark resistance because I only just finished using it.

Great quality paint when on walls with ease and is a lovely brilliant white colour,ordered just the right size. Dries really quickly and leaves the room lovely bright and clean.

I recently purchased the Dulux 5268045 Once Tester Paint in the Timeless color, and I’m extremely pleased with its performance - I use it both as a tester but also to cover up some damage on my walls. Here’s my detailed review:What I Like:- High-Quality Finish: The paint provides a beautiful, smooth finish. The Timeless color is elegant and versatile, perfectly matching the decor of my room.- One-Coat Coverage: True to its name, the paint delivers excellent coverage with just one coat. It saved me a lot of time and effort compared to other paints that require multiple coats.- Easy Application: The paint has a nice consistency that makes it easy to apply. It goes on evenly and dries to a flawless finish without streaks or brush marks.- Low Odor: One of the standout features for me is the low odor. I didn’t have to deal with strong paint fumes, which made the painting process much more pleasant.- Sample Size: The 30 ml tester size is perfect for trying out the color before committing to a larger quantity. It’s enough to cover a small area and gives a good indication of how the color will look in different lighting conditions.What I Dislike:- Limited Coverage: While the 30 ml size is great for testing, it obviously doesn’t cover a large area. This isn’t a major drawback, but it’s something to be aware of if you’re planning to test on a larger surface.- Drying Time: The drying time is slightly longer than I expected, but this is a minor issue considering the quality of the finish.Value for Money:The Dulux 5268045 Once Tester Paint offers excellent value for money. Its high-quality finish, one-coat coverage, and ease of application make it a worthwhile investment. The tester size is particularly useful for trying out colors without committing to a full can of paint.Conclusion:Overall, I am very impressed with the Dulux Once Tester Paint in Timeless. It delivers on its promise of one-coat coverage and provides a beautiful, professional-looking finish. The ease of application and low odor are added bonuses that enhance the overall painting experience. Despite the minor issue with drying time, I would highly recommend this product.Would I buy it again? Absolutely!
