Johnstone's 431005 Cupboard Paint Ochre Dreams 750 ml

This paint is perfect if you want to "modernise" your kitchen cabinets without the huge expense. As you can see these are original 1980s cabinets and are heavily worn. I lightly sanded the cabinets and prepared best I could but working inside a flat left me limitedSimply put I didn't have the expenses for a complete kitchen overhaul and this paint offered a good option to at least tidy it up and give it a fresh colour/coat.I found it very easy to apply and it spreads nicely, it also dries quite fast and once cured it leaves a lovely white finish.With a few coats the cabinets really do look fantastic and for the value of this tin, you'd almost think it's been fully refurbished. It'll never replace actually changing the cabinets due to wear, painting environment and overall finish but my word, for £15 it will completely amend the cabinets appearance and add some modern handles, it's a very cheap way to enhance your cabinets. It can literally save you hundreds/thousands compared to a professional job and let's face it, who doesn't need the extra savings?Highly recommend

This paint is amazing. It's got a low odour and touch dries pretty quick. Throughly stir it and apply a thin coat first. The second coat went on so easily with great coverage, I used a roller for that extra smooth finish. The finish is amazing. Stains come off easily with a wipe with a damp cloth. Very easy to clean your roller/brush. As a first time user I would highly recommend this paint. Also make sure your ready delivery is quick, thanks.

So my kitchen cupboards covering was breaking away so I decided to strip it off back to the original MDF. What I loved about this paint is no primer was needed which was a bonus. I went for the pale grey, I did like the dark grey but I was afraid it would make my kitchen look too dark, I wish there was a in-between colour. Never the less this came out really nice. I did think of my kids mucky hands with a pale grey. I applied 2 coats of this paint and it looked great but beware any dried runs will stand out like a sore thumb. It was annoying as I needed 2 pots but only a quarter of the 2nd pot.After I finished I noticed as lovely as this paint job looked it chips off way to easy so I opted for a varnish. I used Rustins Quick Dry Polyurethane Varnish Matt Clear 1L but 1l is way too much only used around a quarter of that as you need to put this on really thin, I did 2 coats again this is low odour fast drying also but there is a smell to this varnish for a few days but it's bearable. This seems to have done the job and made it look and feel way more durable. Would I recommend this paint yes it saved me a fortune on new cupboard doors, just take your time on the paint job it worth it. It's dries so fast and doesn't smell much which is what we all want. Hopefully I can make use of the left over paint and varnish one day 👍

I took the plunge today and painted my kitchen cupboard doors and drawer fronts. I nervously tried it out on a small panel below my oven, in case it was a disaster, but I couldn't believe how easily it went on and in less than an hour I had done the whole kitchen. I used a small roller and a paint tray. The paint went on smoothly and quickly. It is thick enough not to drip and gave good coverage, even after just one coat (I'm going to put a second coat on later). It doesn't have a strong smell and was touch dry quickly. My kitchen is quite small and one tin is more than enough for 2 coats. I highly recommend this paint to give a tired kitchen a quick, easy and economical facelift. Excellent value.

Good quality product, very good coverage and easy to apply, highly recommended.

I ordered the pale grey shade, and the color matched the tin perfectly. I applied two coats without sanding my dark brown furniture, and the results were impressive. I ended up using nearly three tins of paint, which provided excellent coverage considering the furniture's dark original color (see attached pictures).I made sure to leave the paint to dry overnight between coats, and it turned out beautifully. Overall, I’m very happy with this paint and would definitely recommend it for similar projects.
