I was looking at Lick pro paint in screwfix, has anyone used it and what do you think of it?

I just looked at some prices, £84.99 for 5 litres maybe I will give it a miss.

Think it's ridiculously overpriced stuff in a fancy tin to sell to people who like pretty paint cans and have money to burn. Hipster nonsense basically, it's the almond milk chai latte with a vegan croissant of paints.

If you're spending that kind of money, F&B with all the gubbins is what you're wanting.

If you want a fancy posh paint get farrow and ball. Dulux is the best regular paint. Leyland and crown budget paint.

I have always thought that Farrow and Ball is the King's new clothes of paint. I had a F&B colour mixed into Johnstones which is my favourite paint. Quite frankly unless the paint jumped out the tin onto the wall there is no reason to pay such a price for paint.

The price puts me off.

See my post just now about Tikkurila...
