How do I check if my paint colour is correct?Updated 9 months ago

Hey therešŸ‘‹Ā 

As all colour matches are created to match the charts, the best way to check the accuracy of the colour is to dry the paint down onto the official branded colour chart.Ā 

Place a small amount on top of the colour chart and dry it with a hairdryer if possible.

If you're not happy with a colour match, just run this check and pop over an email to [email protected] so we can look into this for you.Ā 

Please note that due to copyright restrictions we use alphanumeric codes instead of shade names on our designer colour-match labels. On your label, you'll find a 3 or 9-digit alpha code, followed by 3 numeric digits which should match the number code of the designer colour shade. If you're not sure which number corresponds to your colour match, you can Google the designer brand and colour name to find the number. If you're still not sure just drop us a message and we'll be happy to help you work it out.

Make sure to use the official version of the colour chart, and not one from B&Q as these are often inaccurate.Ā 

If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out! 😊
