Please recommend me a good pale grey

[ScarlettDarling]

We're decorating my son's bedroom and want to cover his mid blue walls with a warm pale grey. We've got a few sample pots but they seem to be drying with a lilac/mauve tinge. Any recommendations?

I've got Dulux Chic Shadow in my lounge. I don't think it's a dark grey, maybe mid? But I love it. It's very calming and soft.

Dulux Egyptian cotton- had that in the uk about 4 years ago. I'm assuming it's still Around ( I don't live there anymore )

We've tried lots recently in a south-west facing bright room - strong favourites (unfortunately) are F&B Blackened and Mylands Elgin. I love the latter one. Just on the warm side of neutral in our space.

@ScarlettDarling did you find the perfect grey? Photos please! I’m still looking!!

Also on offer at the moment, I’m sure.

We used Dulux chic shadow in the end. Its a true grey and my son is very pleased with it.

Following, I’ll be in tester hell soon!

I used Dulux Polished Pebble in one room and it is definitely a slightly cooler grey (blue tinge) - nice but definitely cool. Pebble Shore by Dulux is warmer a slightly browny grey. I like both but if you want warmer Pebble shore is the one to go for.

I also have Farrow and Ball Pavillion Grey and I see that as a very good mid grey - quite a solid colour and slightly darker than the two I mentioned. It doesn't seem either bluish or brownish in the room I have it in.
I am about to do another room in Farrow & Ball Ammonite and Purbeck Stone which look like they will be more of a browny grey and warmer. I tested so many in different parts of the rooms to see what they look like at different times of the day as they can look completely different. It's quite a long process making colour decisions!
