Valspar have asked us to find 250 Mumsnetters to test Valspar Premium Blend v700 Walls & Ceilings paint.

Here’s what Valspar have to say: “Put Valspar Premium Blend v700™ Walls & Ceilings Paint to the test. Blend v700 promises to give you ultimate coverage, pure colour, splatter resistance and allows walls to be wiped down without removing the paint. With excellent scrubbability and great stain resistance means Blend v700™ withstands the toughest household stains from felt tips to black coffee, making it perfect for busy homes and high-traffic rooms, such as children’s bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways. With long-term performance you can rely on, your colour will stay true for years to come.”

"As well as being available in a variety of finishes, including matt, mid-sheen and gloss, the Valspar unique colour matching technology can replicate any colour the eye can see - that's 2.2 million shades! Choose a colour that's personal to you and your family - be it the shade of a festive Christmas bauble, or a favourite ornament, simply take the item to your local B&Q and its exact colour can be scanned and recreated in paint form."

This product test is open to all UK MNers who are homeowners and would like to freshen up or add a splash of colour to their home and are available to paint their room and give feedback by the 11th April.

Selected testers will be sent a voucher for a 2.5L tin of Valspar Premium Blend v700 Walls & Ceilings, a Harris roller and tray set and a Harris brush which will be valid from the 20th March. Testers will be required to paint a wall or room in their home and then post feedback on a thread and complete a short survey by the 11th April at the latest. Testers will also be asked to share before and after photographs of their room or wall - please only apply if you’re happy to do this.

Sign up here.

All those selected who give the required feedback will be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher.

Thanks and good luck!

I think you may struggle getting 250 testers, so perhaps make it five litres each so there's enough to paint a room?

theAntsareMyFriends · 10/03/2017 09:43

I've signed up but as I want to do my hall, stairs and landing there is no way 2.5l will be enough. At least it will do some of it but then I'm stuck with buying the same brand for the rest. Does anyone know if its expensive to buy (eg. is it Dulux prices or more like F&B costs)?

If we want to do more than 1 room can we sign up more than once Wink

ProseccoandPizza · 10/03/2017 11:12

ShowMeWhatYouGot · 10/03/2017 14:03

Signed up, our new build just had its year defaults inspection & are free to decorate! So many white walls still!

JustCallMeKeith · 12/03/2017 08:47

Oh, I have just painted using this paint in my living room last week! If only I'd looked here beforehand.

ShelaghTurner · 12/03/2017 08:53

Would apply as our house is a wreck but agree, 2.5l wouldn't be enough for one room.

Carriemac · 12/03/2017 09:17

Just the right amount for my grubby kitchen walls!

Stokey · 13/03/2017 13:12

I've signed up. Anyone know if you can colour match F&B with it?

SasBel · 13/03/2017 13:24

Signed up! Anything that will resist the kids graffiti artwork would be fab.
