want to paint garage door a farrow&ball-esque colour, what paint?

[nipersvest]

the only garage door paint i can find is in a very small range of colours (red, blue, white, black), but i would really like a soft grey/green colour.

its a metal up and over door, anyone else painted their garage door, which f&b paint (if any) is ok for external use?

I was going to do mine last year and bought some of this. We didn't get around to it though and I am dying to know what it looks like. What colour were you thinking of?

that's the kind of colour i want on your link, a soft grey/green. we usually would use something like hammerite with it being a metal door but the colour range is so limited. will check out the sandtex as it'll be cheaper than f&b eggshell.

That's why I chose it. Let me know what it's like when it's on. I am still waiting for dh to do it (it's his job!)

If you do go for it, of course

How about this? www.homebase.co.uk/en/homebaseuk/decorating/rust-oleum-gloss-spray-paint---sage-green---400ml-839542

Valspar paint can be mixed in any shade.... They can also colour match. Take in a f&b colour chart, they will colour match your chosen shade and mix it in their exterior gloss or satin

V v popular. This is in B&Q only

i've gone for hombase's own brand, weathercoat. its a soft green/grey but the colour isn't on their website, it was reduced, only £14.99, so i think its a discontinued shade. satin finish rather than gloss.

door is scrubbed and have sanded it a bit, not painted yet though!
