Thanks for your review. We've spoken to our local APC, and they are finding out why/what happened and let us all down. They take Trustpilot seriously, so thank you for sharing the details. Sorry that this experience wasn't as great, but we're happy you like the product!

Hi Steve, no thank you. We didn't want to keep the order waiting for as long as we did, but we are pleased you could use the 20L. Thanks again for the review.

Bird Brand - “Eco Spirit”

Bird Brand - “Eco Spirit”, white spirit replacement - It absolutely is not and does not do what it says on the tin - it is completely useless and is not a subsitute for anything other than water and the smallest amount of washing up liquid - Do not buy it it is shit and you can make your own for a fraction price and it would not be any worse.
I only gave you one star because it would not allow no stars.

1 - It is not Spirit
2 - It does not replace white spirit.
3 - It is water with a really small amount of fairy liquid.
4 - It is completely useless.

It should not be called Eco Spirit - Spirit is a volatile substance, often flammable, this is 99.9% water so it is neither, I will be reporting them to trading standards.

Blimey, that's not great! We do sell a fair bit nowadays. Sounds like proper White Spirit would have been better for you. It's definitely not for thinning paints, but tested as being effective for cleaning brushes and mopping up spillages. We're sorry that it's not worked for your purposes, and if you are minded to share the details (use, paint type etc) do please get in touch!

Hi Russell, sorry for the low score! We delivered your drum on our own van as you are in our catchment each Friday. You ordered Friday 23rd May and we delivered to your site the following Friday 30th, so that is 5 days minus a 1 bank holiday that is 4 working days! I know you called to say you couldn't find the delivery (we got a signature), so maybe that is why you say 10 days! Perhaps it's unfair that we only receive 2 stars. Thanks anyhow!

Good communication

Good communication from ordering to delivery, packaged very well and correct product, which worked really well to remove mould from fence panels. The only negative is the postage was the same price as products ordered, which made it an expensive buy, but would use company again.

Thanks Elaine, that is great. Yes, parcels with liquids seem really expensive :( but thank you for a kind review.
