Excellent paint. I bought brilliant white to paint the top of a 20ft x 8ft wide shipping container that is a strong Royal Blue in colour. According to specs I ought to have needed 2.4 ltr for a flat surface of that area and this metal roof has corrugation. I was fine with a thin coat because it's simply to reflect sunlight, so as to help keep the inside of the container cooler. I washed off the dusty surface and wiped it dry and then used a medium-length-hair 4" roller. I applied it (in one coat) just thick enough to cover (opacity) 95% to 100% of the darkish blue paint on it. By the end I still had 2" of paint in the pot, ample for touching-in where I had skimped a little or where the roller slipped down a corrugation. But this paint seems to feature a clever twist, insomuch as when I opened the can I was disappointed that even when well-stirred it had a slightly green tinge. Still I needed to get on, so I first painted around the outside edge of the container's roof before painting in the middle. By half way down the container's length I could see that the outside edge paint was drying to a brilliant white, and the paint I was applying (in bright but hazy sunlight and 27 degrees c temperatures) look cream. Well that helped lessen the reflective glare while painting and it's a great aid to highlight (until it also dries) where you've applied a second coat. What's a great feature.! Drying time, even on this hot-tin-roof wasn't as quick as I had expected, but again from my perspective that just helps keep a wet edge. I would recommend two thin coats rather than a single thick coat which may run. I'm very pleased with the opacity and ease of application, the final brightness, and the smooth gloss of this paint.

I bought this a month ago ready to decorate, started using it yesterday and it’s like a Matt emulsion! No high gloss at all! Didn’t even need turps it’s water based (small writing on tin) so washed brushes in soapy water. Misleading advertising by Crown DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT TOTAL RIP OFF

This paint doesn’t have an odour and dries really quickly. It stays white for years and is much better than traditional gloss paint. Have used it for doors, furniture and kitchen cupboards - all look great.
