Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Customers like the paint's color, noting it matches patio furniture well, and appreciate its value for money and good finish on wood and stone surfaces. The product is easy to apply with a 3-inch brush, covers well in two coats on fences, and withstands British weather conditions. They find it dries quickly with a smooth finish, though some report it drips everywhere during application.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 April 2025Colour Name: Urban SlateStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseIdeal fence paint and love the colour slate grey. It's very much like anthrocite in another brand and that is twice the price. Goes on nice and easy too
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 November 2024Colour Name: Urban SlateStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseI recently used Cuprinol’s Garden Shades in Urban Slate to refresh my outdoor furniture and fences, and here’s my review based on my experience with this product.
Pros:
Beautiful Color: The Urban Slate shade is stunning! It provides a modern, sophisticated look that complements both traditional and contemporary outdoor settings. The rich, dark hue really enhances the natural beauty of wood and other surfaces.
Easy Application: I found the application process to be straightforward. The paint goes on smoothly with both a brush and a roller, making it easy to cover surfaces evenly. I appreciated how well it adhered to previously treated wood without the need for extensive prep work.
Durability: After several weeks of exposure to the elements, the finish has held up remarkably well. The paint is resistant to fading, chipping, and peeling, providing long-lasting protection against weather conditions.
Water-Based Formula: The water-based formula is a significant advantage. It has a low odor and cleans up easily with soap and water, making the painting process much more pleasant compared to oil-based alternatives.
Eco-Friendly: Cuprinol is known for its commitment to sustainability, and this product is no exception. It is eco-friendly, which is a plus for environmentally conscious consumers who want to minimize their impact while maintaining their outdoor spaces.
Quick Drying Time: The drying time is impressively quick. I was able to apply two coats in one day without long waiting periods, which expedited my project considerably.
Cons:
Limited Coverage: The 2.5-litre container has a somewhat limited coverage area, especially if you are working on larger projects. Depending on the wood's porosity, I found that I needed more than one container to complete my fence and furniture.
Requires Multiple Coats: For the best results, multiple coats are necessary to achieve a uniform finish, particularly if you’re covering a lighter base color. This can be time-consuming, so plan accordingly.
Surface Preparation Needed: While it adheres well to some surfaces, those that are heavily weathered or previously treated may require thorough sanding or priming to ensure the best adhesion and finish.
Not Suitable for High Traffic Areas: While durable for outdoor use, the finish may not hold up as well in high traffic areas or on surfaces subject to heavy wear. For such applications, additional protection or a more robust product may be necessary.
Price Point: Although the quality is high, it is slightly more expensive than some other outdoor paints. However, I believe the durability and aesthetic benefits justify the cost.
Overall Verdict:
Cuprinol 5159075 GSUS25L Garden Shades in Urban Slate is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to refresh their outdoor spaces with a modern, stylish finish. The beautiful color, ease of application, and long-lasting durability make it a standout product in the garden paint category. While there are some considerations regarding coverage and surface preparation, the overall performance and eco-friendly features make this paint a worthwhile investment for enhancing outdoor aesthetics. If you’re in search of a high-quality outdoor paint that delivers both protection and style, I highly recommend Cuprinol Garden Shades Urban Slate.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 April 2025Colour Name: Urban SlateStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseBought some urban slate for some tired DIY wooden garden planters. The paint went on easily and cleaned-up with just water. The paint was a nice consistency and even shade (remember to stir well). I'll be using more of this in future, given the range of colours.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 April 2025Colour Name: Wild ThymeStyle Name: Semi-transparentVerified Purchaseat first I was a bit unsure about this colour but as it was on sale I thought I will give it a go (can always paint over it not looking nice right?)
I have dark green decking and brown fencing (paints from the same brand) and to my surprise this colour looks really amazing with my garden design!
I am using these paints for years now for my garden furniture, fences, decking and my greenhouse shelvings. Even my tortoise shed! and I love them! the range of colours is amazing, the quality and durability as well. Next to add some autumn orange to my garden :)
Highly recomended to have a look through as everyone will find something they will love,
