Used on all my ourside uPVC white window cils in preparation for painting them with a standard black gloss water based paint.
I did this in summer & they still have a great glossy black finish with no streaking.
Best primer product I have personally used on uPVC.

MDF is very hard to paint over , it peels off. (I guess this may do to...it's too soon to say) However I saw a video on painting MDF and they used a Johnstone ( Universal) primer ...which is very expensive. If you go to Johnstone's own web site , they no longer seem to offer the Universal but do have this (any surface) which I take to be the new name/replacement ...anyhow it's a whole lot cheaper at Argos

I bought this paint having used it before. I’ve used it to paint a door and I’m happy with the look. I don’t feel I need to gloss over it. It’s done the job perfectly

I purchased this as we moved into a property where they had bathroom tiles as splashbacks all around the kitchen and needed to change the colour until we are ready to purchase a new kitchen.I must admit this product is amazing to roll onto plastic. Let it dry and applied an oil based paint over the top and had a fantastic result. So glad I found this product and would use on other projects.. definitely a ten out ten

Went on radiators with good coverage and didn’t dry to quickly allowing time to brush out any potential runs.

A friend recommended this to me to paint my kitchen tiles. Worked perfectly with great coverage. No more hideous copper colour.
