What our customers say

Recently used SML to order paint for my dutch barge. All the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable about products. They even managed to get a package sent out to me next day when I had come up short on thinners at the end of a long day spraying. I will definitely order paints from here in future. - Christopher French

Thank you for the exemplary service, the paint tins were so well packed, and the surprise Document Pack, was very helpful. That, combined with very swift delivery, was most impressive - D G & B L Lewis - Cardiff

Great marine paints. - James Crompton

I was delighted with your service and am in the process of placing another order i paint boats for a living haven’t had the pleasure of using your product but found it easy to use. - Brian Wholey - Lancashire

Couldn't be more helpful and professional. The best paint company I've ever used. - Glosstock Sales

Your website is imho, one of the best in the business. Great products, advice and all the ancillaries needed to get a first rate result, delivered swiftly at a very fair price indeed. Tops! - Tim Allen - East Sussex

Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with your products. I have just completed painting my boat and I am thrilled with the result. Excellent product and service – cheers - Adrian Mickleson - East Molesey

I used your SHIELD Surface Tolerant Primer and am hugely impressed with the results - this is by far the best result I've had out of many different paints I've tried for this task! The performance is all the more remarkable since the keels sink into highly abrasive harbour mud every low tide, which scours most coatings off. - Mark Hartswood - Scottish Borders

Hello guys, the customer service I received when I was calling for advice really was excellent, I'll be recommending you to all my fellow boaters - Richard Sergejev - Hertfordshire

Helpful, professional and know their products. - John Richards

Many thanks for a wonderful service which would be hard to equal, I have never felt more confident in using your company - Thank you - John Parkin - Mexborough

My boat went back in the water today! I would like to thank SML for the great service you provided, both over the phone, super quick delivery, but above all an excellent product. The boat looks great - Steve Duffy - Staines

We are very impressed with the CU-PRO anti fouling. Just dried out the yacht after 14 months continuous immersion and the anti fouling had repelled growth very well, delighted with the anti fouling’s performance and will be re-coating with CU-PRO before re launch in spring next year. - Ian Binnie - Argyll

If you require anti fouling paints - Go no where else! I have used all the leading antifoul manufacturers paints over 30 years. CU-PRO is the best on the market, does the best job and even cheaper than most of the others. SML are a quality company and with the best products. - David Rosser

Excellent Company. Very good knowledge of products and can't do enough for you. I have used this company for around 10 years. - Joseph Wiggins
