So I want a light grey paint, one that is actually grey based not a light beige/cream/blue. Kind of half-way between Dulux chic shadow and white - does something like that exist?!

Valdosta - pale interlude! It's gorgeous!

Quiet interlude not pale!! Blush

Bingybongybashy · 20/08/2016 23:31

Velspar!!

F&B Great White is gorgeous but in my house looks lilac - which was what I was looking for.

*Valspar, even?

Another vote here for Dulux Goose Down

Farrow and Ball are all about whites that aren't quite white just a bit grey / yellow / other colour. Try one of them. F&B are great quality paints and stand the test of time well

Laura Ashley Dove Grey - it's a winner

I've been looking at paint today and Dulux's Rock Salt is a very pale, almost white grey. I was going to get a sample pot but they didn't have any left.

Just painted three testers will post the separately so I don't get confused!

Dulux Rock Salt (have put the letter there to comare against white.

Dulux grey steel 2. A proper grey without blue, green or purple undertones.

Laura ashley pale dove grey. Gorgeous.

hairymuffet · 22/08/2016 23:28

Just walnut in my lounge. It's lilac !

GreenGoth89 · 22/08/2016 23:42

Have a look at dulux grey steel - 1-2 are a good combo.

Also looking for something slightly lighter than polished pebble, I think. Maybe I'm not brave enough!

Whitecovers · 06/09/2016 21:06

I have just painted my living room and hallway in Valspars Shetland Sweater, it's a super pale almost white grey. Will get a photo tomorrow.

Thecontentedcat · 06/09/2016 21:54

Agree with pp, cornforth white, it is exactly what you describe. Also slipper satin is a nice warm grey. Both f&b.

USbound · 08/09/2016 12:11

Thanks white covers, always good to see a photo.
Polished pebble goes on quite dark but dries surprisingly lighter.

Whitecovers · 08/09/2016 13:26

Photos are ridiculously bad. No idea why I chose a corner with a load of shadows in it. But you can get the gist that it's a very pale, almost white grey.
