Good paint
Bought to paint kitchen. Very good quality & goes on quite thick giving good coverage. Only a small tin though so had to get an additional one, however it only needed 1 coat. Bought while on offer so good value.

Good paint
I bought the paint a couple of weeks ago. It does what it says on the tin. Easy to apply as undercoat. I have not seen damp since applying the paint, hopefully it stays that way.

Hello Diy queen,
The Johnstone's Damp Proof Matt Paint can help cover discoloration from previous damp patches, but only if the underlying damp issue has been fully resolved.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Max,
The supplier has advised the following for the Johnstone's Damp Matt Paint 750ml - White:
"If the paint is blistering on the surface this indicates that there is an issue with the surface. This needs to be identified and sorted before trying other coatings.
I would suggest that if previous products have blistered this will too.
Without more information, it is very difficult to give the customer any further advise."
Thank you for using Q and A.
