David Rolfe about BS381C 110 Roundel Blue - Record Vice Blue:

Jun 8, 2020

This customer purchased the item at our site.

Superb product and excellent service. Thank you. This is the second time I have purchased this paint and it gives an excellent finish; smooth and very easy to apply to bare steel or pre-painted metal. Paint tin lid is taped and clipped and tin itself is well packed so completely safe in transit. Will definitely buy again from this supplier.

BS5252 16-C-35 Green

I would not normally buy Paragon paint (this was a first) and only did so because of the relatively small volume required to complete a project... would have preferred 250ml, should it have been available, which would have been plenty so I've probably enough to recoat the job a dozen times now... such is life! As to the paint itself I was most impressed with the film build, ease of application (brushing), good flow whilst keeping a wet edge and fast drying time. A second coat was applied after ca. 12 hours with perfect result. Colour match to BS 5252F 1976 color matching fan was nigh on perfect. The paint is for an outdoor project so it will be interesting to see how it weathers. Given the reasonable price I would certainly use Paragon paints again where small quantities are required. All in all an excellent product.
