Taubmans Easycoat Pro Ceiling Paint

Lesson learnt, don’t buy paint at Bunnings.
I purchased wall, ceiling and Woodwork paint to paint my house during COVID from Bunnings. Price wasn’t an issue. I purchased the premixed Antique White Dulux Wash and Wear which I’ve used before and again hasn’t let me down, a great paint. Taubmans Easy Coat was the only option they offered so I poorly assumed it was a good paint, I actually think I asked for a good ceiling white. I am on my third coat and it is still patchy and in even. The consistency is thinner than Dulux, but not being an expert not sure if this is just ceiling paint. Do yourself a favour and go to a paint store.

Worst paint ever.
Used a premium roller and brush only to find that after two coats it dries very patchy. Looks like it needs another coat. Waste of time and money. Will switch to a Dulux paints to cover up the mess.

Too thin, chalky
Does not finish well. Several coats and still looks like it needs more. Paint is very runny, probably why. I’ve used their 3 in 1 primer and that is much better.

Complete waste of time
My kids water colours have better coverage than this products. Complete waste of time. Dries quickly because its as watery as milk. Upto my 3rd coat and it's still practically transparent.

DO NOT BUY THIS PAINT!!!
The easy coat flat ceiling paint has to be the worst paint I have had the misfortune to purchase in my 54 years. It is watery and so drips everywhere and with really poor coverage. It is like trying to paint with watered down UPVA glue. Just a waste of my time. Shame on you Taubmans for producing this poor excuse for paint!

Questions & Answers
Anneasked
I have just used Taubmans Easycoat flat white ceiling paint on a previously white painted ceiling. After 2 coats the previously smooth ceiling is streaky with very poor coverage. The worst part is the smell which seems to get worse each day rather than subsiding even with the doors and windows open all day and night. How can I get rid of the smell?

Hi Anne, sorry I can’t be of any help with your question. I don’t recall a bad smell. I chose Taubmans because another well known brand reviews reported bad smells. I swapped over to using Haynes paint which I give 10/10

I am using Taubmans interior walls white, first coat went on one week ago, as i'm applying second coat its dragging the first and second paint off as I overlap the new paint with brush or roller, its almost like the paint is curdling and reacting on itself.
Spoke to Taubmans custormer service they told me to sand and wash first coat before applying second coat, that done, it did not solve the problem. Any help its driving me mad? Graham

Before putting your first coat on was the wall chalk in feel or smooth and glossy if it’s not sticking to original paint then it wasn’t washed properly before painting any paint hi need a sound surface. Which means if it’s water based paint originally you use sugar soap over the whole surface if especially dirty or chalky you need to rinse that off then the paint should stick if the surface is pretty rough meaning pretty dirty and patch repair as much as you can then apply an undercoat before painting your 2 topcoats. If it’s a wet area it could mean there’s soap on the walls from showering and bath etc overtime the particles build up from the steam carrying them up to walls and ceiling so needs to very well washed with arm water and sugar soap sometimes twice. Unfortunatley you have already painted so the best way forward is either using a round orbital sander with a 180 grit or finer and sanding back to original surface so you can thoroughly clean and start again. I hope this helps. Good luck it’s not fun I know I’m I have just completed that whole process in bathroom ceiling paint flacked back to plaster almost because poor ventilation and poor preparation back in the eighties when place was built.
