How much is this paint
Not much more than the Dulux paint. Seriously, I will never use Dulux again. There were streaks absolutely on every wall - it did not matter how many coats of paint we applied. Dulux always puts blame back onto its customer - not acceptable. Haymes paint we experienced is a far superior paint - the best on the market in our opinion. When we also spoke to professional painters, they said the same. It's asshame we did not know this when we first started purchasing paint. Haymes also provided very good assistance and instruction regarding their paint and application. Have no idea why Bunnings will not sell it. It also is Australian made by a family business which is wonderful. That's probably why it is far superior paint - I believe they have better quality assurance.
I would like to renovate a veneer TV cabinet into a Hampton style painted drink cabinet. The room is painted in Haymes Minimilist 5. Could you recommend what products I need to prep the veneer, a primer & top coat. Would you suggest Minimilist 7 as a contrasting color in the Chalk paint or should I go a darker grey. The room has 2 large windows with white plantation shutters installed.
Hi, suggest you please ask Haymes Paints. They are the best paint company and the best quality from our experience

Hi, we have a 2 year old and want to paint the whole inside of our house. Is your paint for us? If so what do you recommend
Can you use Haymes expressions low sheen to freshen up a set of drawers?
If the drawers are a larger size then Low sheen will be ok but not as hard wearing or good looking as enamel.... Haymes has great flowing water based enamel that is proving durable on my sun exposed window sills...easy to clean & looks great!
Would make your drawers sparkle...
In hall way, foyer,stairs down one side, walls 5 Mtrs high and large window over front door. Having trouble with low sheen showing roller marks and cutting in marks. How do I avoid this. The stair wall be able to wash dirty marks off. The paint I used was not Haynes.
Tricky job as the light will show any surface imperfections. Usually roller overlaps are due to different paint coat thickness. Use a good quality roller & make sure the paint is laid evenly. Do at least two coats. Don’t rush.
Get the paint drying between coats and allow 3 full days to cure.
Once done it’s easy to keep clean...we have new kid marks every week...most come off with warm damp cloth.
Good luck - hope this helps!
Hi all, does this paint work well against mould, or would you recommend adding an additive such as tropical strength?
It isn't anti mould but you can get additives. Probably best to ask the people at haymes what to do. It's fantastic paint
What would be the best Haymes paint and sheen to use on a bathroom ceiling?
Hi has anyone used Haymes Paving paint if so were you happy with it, does it stay on would dogs claws scratch it.
Do Haymes have a paint to use on laminate kitchen cupboards?
No idea , why not give them a call.
hi, I have used haymes paint throughout and have been very satisfied with it, my question now is what level of sheen to paint the bathroom and kitchen. its a 1950 kitchen so gets plenty of cooking fumes etc, not like the nice open plan living ones. I have been told by the paint store to continue with the low sheen but am worried that it wont be washable enough and worried in the bathroom cause of the steam. If I go with the semi gloss I am concerned that I will end up with too much sheen.....stuck can anyone help me
Hi Colleen, i would continue with expressions lo sheen.
It has a slight higher sheen than other brands and is very durable.
The semi gloss has a high sheen but is much harder wearing. I guess its a personal preference re sheen levels.
You can consider haymes satin finish.
Thanks for all your feedback. I will look to see if Australia has the satin Paint finish, it sounds like it might be perfect but i haven't seen it in store but will enquire thanks
