Downpipe Love

I sampled this paint and we decided to buy it in 2 finishes for our living room! The color is perfection!

Wall Patch

I have several walls in my house painted in Down Pipe. I needed a small amount of paint to touch up a patch where a new thermostat was installed. The tester pot was exactly what I needed. Thanks very much for sending it to me.

Art wall

Great colour for my painting to stand out on the wall.

Downpipe grey for our alcove unit

We saw this colour when we were at The Hive cafe in Stow-on-the-Wold and thought it would be great for our alcove unit. Our unit is actually our reclaimed Victorian bath panel which we have re-purposed to great affect, and we wanted a bold contrast to our white background colours. Lovely deep grey colour, excellent coverage and quick drying. Highly recommended.

My favorite near-black!

Simply my favorite near- black to use alone or as a contrast/ trim color. The texture is thick and it provides excellent coverage. The sample was a decent size to try over various textures and coatings.

Solid

Such solid colour with one coat. Worth the hefty price tag.

Bumpyk - 5 / 5 - 22/09/2024

Perfection 👌

Perfect sample colour. Decided to paint whole room

deceptively named

does not even come close to the description and images of the shutters which appear blue.

Be brave, go dark

Absolutely love this colour, painted all my walls in my living room and really gives it a sophisticated look. Love the finish with absolutely no shine coming off it.
