Although the rates we charge our customers for decorating are extremely reasonable, we realise that not everybody can afford to get a professional decorator in to do their decorating. So with this in mind Decorators Today have decided to offer numerous tips and reviews to the would-be DIY decorator.
We will be updating regularly and offering new tips as well as reviewing new products as they hit the market place.
So please be sure to come back and check for our latest updates!!! Thanks.
This month we have a real gem. Its not often that you would think to visit a timber merchants to buy your paint. But Lawsons timber merchants in Crawley, West Sussex have struck a deal with the American paint manufacturer Ace Hardware to supply Ace paints to the British market. Ace have a wide variey of paints in a huge range of colours and is on sale at the moment at Lawsons for great prices.
By far the most impressive of the Ace range is Ace Sensations. Ace Sensations is a flat matt emulsion with all the durability of a semi-gloss. The paint actually contains a Scotchguard protector that provides an advanced stain resistant technology that resistes even oily stains. Unlike some cheaper paints that fades when cleaned or scrubbed, Ace Sensations will keep its original appearance even after cleaning.
Impressive claims have been made by both Lawsons and Ace Hardware regarding the qualities of the Ace Sensations range, and we at Decorators Today have carried out a small scale test and can add our endorsement to those qualities. We have yet to carry out a thorough test of some of the durability claims, but on our preliminary test we can say that the paint spreads and covers well, and gives a nice finish. Over the nect month we will be carrying out more extensive tests and we will display our findings here on our Decorators Reviews page.
Finally a great reason for both DIY decorators and professional painter and decorators alike to get down to Lawsons to discover their Ace Sensations range is the price. We all know the price of paint is getting dearer, and companies like Dulux and Farrow & Ball have had it their own way for far too long. A 5 litre tin of Dulux vinyl matt emulsion retails at £37.00 or £7.40 per litre,, while a 5 litre tin of Farrow&Ball will set you back £38.99 or £7.70 per litre. A 3.75 litre (American gallon) tin of Ace Sensations at Lawson timber merchant retails at £25.26, which works out £6.75 per litre.
So the fact that its almost a pound per litre cheaper, and yet has a higher durability due to its innovative technology, makes Ace Sensations a worthy winner of our Star Buy of the month. Professional decorators, and DIY enthusiasts, get yourself down to Lawsons Timber Merchants in Crawley, West Sussex and find out for yourselves.
