Hi Sara,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. It’s great to hear our advice helped you choose the right paint, and that ordering and using it were both straightforward.

Our marine paints may feel costly on a smaller job, especially for something like a dinghy, but are made to cope with tough conditions and give lasting protection. We really appreciate your feedback and your support.

Hi Grzegorz,

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to read this and fully understand how frustrating delays and product issues can be, especially when they affect a live job.

Before this review was left, the customer service team tried to contact you by phone, but the calls were rejected. Since the review was posted, Nick, the technical manager, has also tried to speak with you directly so we can understand exactly what has happened and help resolve it properly.

We have also requested your contact details through Trustpilot, but have not received a reply so far.

We do want to work with you to put this right. Please call us back on 0113 2455450, option 2, or email Nick directly at nick@rawlinspaints.com. Once we can speak with you, we will be more than happy to review the issue and help find the best way forward.

Kind regards,
Rawlins Paints

Great product, expensive but you get what you pay for !!

Spent a lot of time researching products and settled on thermoguard. After placing the order which was really easy I received a phone call to advise on the delivery. At that point I took the opportunity to make sure I’d selected the correct paint.
Delivery was fast and the items arrived in damaged as promised. The colour we chose was bang on the RAL colour match, delighted with the finished result as we specified 6sqm coverage you get a 5ltr white that goes on like porridge !! Definitely need to apply with a fine / medium roller. We only just had enough so make sure you check your measurements when ordering.
The top coat was a lot easier to apply and coverage is excellent. The paint fumes do linger for a long time afterwards, two weeks on we can still smell the paint. It is really faint though now. Ensure you paint in well ventilated area the top coat was strong ! I would definitely recommend this product.

Thanks Alex for such a detailed review. It’s great to hear the Thermoguard system delivered the finish and colour match you were looking for, and that the team could help confirm you had selected the correct product before dispatch.

Intumescent basecoats apply very differently to standard paints, we’re pleased the final result was worth the effort and that delivery and communication met expectations too.

Thanks again for taking the time to leave such comprehensive feedback and for recommending the product.
