B&Q Tate Colour is an excellent paint; low in emissions ie no nasty smells!
Thick, resilient, efficient - very good coverage.
Reminds me of New England Paint which had exactly
the same factors.

I agree with floss on this B&Q Tate Colour Emulsion. I was hoping to freshen up my kitchen by putting on another coat of the same colour (Skylon) but I'm hugely disappointed that B&Q have discontinued this range.

Brilliant paint, good coverage, need to get hold of more paint in the colour Fruit. It is a really bold deep purple. (read more)

When will paint manufacturers realise that we don't want to spend our lives going over and over the same walls. We do not want to employ painters to do it either.

B&Q Tate Colour Emulsion paint, which now seems to have been discontinued by B&Q, was the best paint I ever used, and I have used a lot. It covered well, was easy to use - not too thin or too thick, had minimal smell which didn't last long, the colour choice was great, and I would buy more of it if I knew where to get it. I did my kitchen in a colour called Ebb, which is fantastic, and I am really disappointed that B&Q no longer stock the range. (read more)
