"Ronseal, rubbish paint"

Ronseal, stays white, non drip, one coat, satin paint. It may stay white, it isn't non-drip and it definitely isn't one coat - one of the worst paints I have ever applied.

"I had Ronseal 10 Year Woodstain…"

I had Ronseal 10 Year Woodstain professional applied to my windows and doors. When it gets wet it temporarily changes colour giving unsightly patches. Ronseal cannot explain why or confirm that product efficacy is unaffected.

"Used some products wasn't very happy…"

Used some products wasn't very happy with results after complaining to customer service received a full refund so can't complain thank you Ronseal.

" Ronseal Precision Pump Fence Sprayer don’t waste your money"

Purchased Ronseal Precision Pump Fence Sprayer a couple of weeks ago for a large fence project. After filling the sprayer up, creating the vacuum via the pump, it spurted paint all over me/part of the fence, the nozzle seemed defective, despite cleaning down all the component parts and flushing with water it did not work, I’m so disappointed with the product. It cost under £30, its not fit for purpose, would like a refund. Interested to see that replacement nozzles can be purchased, is this a “known” manufacturing issue?

"Ronseal fence Life plus Tudor black oak…"

Having a very large garden with post and rail fencing that needed painting I decided to buy 4 large tubs of Ronseal Fence Life Plus + in Dark Black Oak from Screwfix. As I had previously used Ronseal products I decided this was the right product for the job.
How wrong was I!! It took me 10 days to paint all the posts and rails giving them 3 coats in perfect weather conditions allowing a minimum of 7 hours between coats.
Was away for 2 months abroad and came back to a really disappointing scene! All the colour which when originally painted looked great is now all patchy and some areas back to the original wood colour. I have taken photos of this disaster.
I have yet again today started to paint the areas again to make them look acceptable but I feel that I'm wasting my time and energy. It states on the tin 'does exactly what it says on the tin'!!!! No where does it mention that the colour will disappear and leave the wood looking like it does and you'll need to repeat painting after 2 months!!
Very disappointed in this product.

"Does exactly what it says on the…"

Does exactly what it says on the tin'....SERIOUSLY WHAT A JOKE!!

I have absolutely no idea what has happened to this once SUPERB AND TRUSTED Company but like so many post Covid, they seem to have gone to the dogs.

Purchased large pots of Midnight Blue after seeing the picture of a latice decorative fence in the same colour. We're also installing in our garden makeover in two weeks time. Just like the picture ADVERTISED this is the contemporary colour we are after.

Two days I've been painting 30 of the some 150 slats and after 4 coats I'm still looking at more of an Aqua Greeny/Blue than a Midnight Blue. Yes Ive followed the instructions to the letter!! Fact is it is no where near the colour ADVERTISED ON OR AS SHOWN ON THE POT either.

Furthermore, the stain is so weak I seriously think it's been watered down at source because it just runs like a stream, and still I'm no further forward despite only having to paint one side of the slats.

We've just about given up and today purchased a tester pot of Cuprinol IRIS and it tacked to the wood with one sweep of the brush.....literally.

It's extremely unprofessional to sell such a poor product, pots I cannot get a refund for because unfortunately our garden project was pushed back four weeks due to the landscapers planned knee surgery being brought forward. B&Q returns policy is only 30 days. I should have read all the reviews of how EVIDENTLY poor Ronseals brand/products have become before purchasing this dyed water!!

"I am a carpenter of 50 years and have…"

I am a carpenter of 50 years and have recently purchased a tin of Ronseal Dark 2 part wood filler. The filler itself does work well,however once it is sanded turns to a light almost white finish rendering it useless on dark wood. I contacted Ronseal and all they said was take it back to where you purchased it. That is not the issue,the problem is in the manufacture of this product as it doesnt work on Dark woods. I will now have to apply multiple layers of wood stain(not from Ronseal) to aquire the colour of the wood. Dont buy this product for dark wood you may as well use White.

"After 48 years in the trade. TOTAL RUBBISH PAINT"

After 48 years in the trade using quality paints I purchase a Ronseal 750ml tin of Weatherproof wood paint.
The biggest mistake was not reading reviews on this product. ABSOLUTE RUBBISH. Is the only way to describe it. Being an artist as well and fully understanding mixing colours, pigments etc. This paint is not fit for purpose. It would have to be sprayed on by someone who understands paints (I worked in a car spray shop for 2 years.
All this synthetic rubbish on the market is causing everyone issues. Plus you can not sand it as it peals like plastic.
Please do not wast your hard earned cash buying any Ronseal products…. You will regret it…
Also when Ronseal reply’s to these posts not one person has said that the matter/issue has been resolved.. WHY ?

" Ronseal xactly interior paint…"

Bought Ronseal xactly interior paint for wood, had a colour mixed in b&q. Took it home, prepped the surface, shook the tin and when I opened it was like water. Not only was the colour not what I was expecting,( b&q problem) the coverage is abysmal. (Ronseal problem) It has taken goodness knows how many coats not 2 as indicated on the tin. Very disappointed as I had hoped to use the rest of the tin on another piece of furniture…I don’t have time for that. Different paint required. Avoid unless you are trying to avoid your husband and kids and need your project to take 10x longer to complete.

"Rubbish! Shed and fence paint is more like…"

Shed and fence paint is more like coloured water and just as much use! A complete waste of time and money. Utter rubbish! This is the last Ronseal product I will buy.
Despite almost constant stirring the pigment in the solution settled immediately to the bottom of the container making it almost impossible to brush on an even coat. The identical product used a year ago had weathered very poorly, thus the need for reapplication.
