You don’t need to be a qualified chemist to understand shades of white, or any other colour for that matter. You just need to be married to a wife who possesses the colour charts for both Farrow and Ball and Little Green. We’re currently redecorating and have colour swatches painted on all walls. I can’t see the white for the off-white.

No, I’m normally just enjoying getting to the end of the journey without breaking down.  Monsieur Le Grenadier

Farrow and ball is overpriced guff in my view, i did two rooms with it (large Georgian farm house) and it’s not a great finish IMO, two coats onto a good primer and base and it marks very easily. I’m intrigued to try little green but on the recommendation of a friend who is a professional he just goes to the Dulux trade centre as anyone can go in and had them mix up the decent stuff in an f&b colour

Agreed. Mrs Grenadier likes the colours, not so much the silly names, but as we’re in France we get it mixed locally. Similarly with Little Green. It’s the shades that matter, not the paint.  Monsieur Le Grenadier
