Product details
Product information
GoodHome Tough & Durable Matt Emulsion is suitable for use on any wood & metal surfaces, but it's ideal for use on the walls and ceilings of high traffic areas in your home, because of its covering power and highly resistant formulation.
- Guarantee - Statutory
- Suitable for use on Multi-surfaces
- Surface Preparation - New plaster or plasterboard should be sealed with a plaster sealer. For non-powdery surfaces or to cover contrasting colours, prepare with a walls and ceilings primer. Painted surfaces should be sanded, clean and dry. Fill any holes or defects with filler. When sanding, wear a face mask to avoid dust inhalation. Before painting on bare wood or metal use a suitable primer. Painted glossy surfaces should be sanded thoroughly
- Instructions for Use - Stir gently before use. Apply using a brush or roller, when the temperature is between 10°C and 30°C. For best results, apply 2 coats leaving up to 4 hours between coats
- Instructions for Storage - Store any leftover paint between 5 and 30°C. Best used within 1 year of opening
Features and benefits
- Offers exceptional hiding power depending on your selected colour and the surface you are painting
- We recommend applying a primer before colour top coat
- We want you to be satisfied with your colour selection. Not all monitors will display colours the same and paint tins may not show the same colour as your walls do in natural light. We therefore recommend you purchase a tester pot so you are sure that this is the right colour for you.
- This GoodHome Tough & Durable matt paint has a stain resistant finish and is extremely hard wearing for longer lasting colour. It is washable, scrubbable and repels liquids so splashes can be wiped off with ease, keeping your painted surfaces looking new for longer.

Good enough
Good coverage, and application was easy. Colour is nice, but it’s not exactly the colour I was expecting it to work out.

Wow 🤩
It’s been years since I’ve bought B&Q paint as I found it to be rubbish, however decided to give this one a go based on positive reviews and have to admit, it’s fantastic. It’s thickish paint so no splashes, colour is very like the picture and best of all, coverage. I’m covering a very dark teal and could probably get away with one coat or just a light second coat with a roller for the odd areas. Anyone wondering how much paint do I need. Our room is approx 12ft x 10ft and by using a brush for first coat then a quick roller, 1 x 2.5l is plenty with a lot to spare.

Excellent product and lovely finish.
We would normally buy a dulux paint; however, really liked this colour. Would definitely continue to buy B&Q's GoodHome paint. Really easy to apply and only required two coats. Lovely colour as well.

Happy with result
The colour is less green and more blue than I thought but once I was done I was happy. Two coats was enough to gey a good coverage

Great coverage and finish.
Coverage and colour were great, it has given a lovely luxurious feel to the hallway and is a colour very much in keeping with our 1930's house. It covered existing light coloured paint very well, but a second coat really gave it a really nice deep feel.

Perfect coverage, in love with this colour!
We bought this colour today, we needed only one coat to perfectly cover the accent wall. The colour is true to the picture and it absorbs excellently. We left the other walls white and it looks lovely.
