Can anyone please recommend a very pale grey paint colour, preferably Johnstones. Not blue tones, true grey.

Everything is too dark or too blue. Thank you.

Dulux rock salt

Little greene French grey light. Johnstones will match it.

Farrow and ball Wimborne White.
Dulux Dusted Moss 2. I have this throughout my whole house and it has no hint of colour in it apart from
True grey. It is quite pale.
It has to be mixed as not available off the shelf.

We got some Coat samples and had them matched at B&Q. We picked JoJo’s White. It was a big room, so we got the “trade paint” formula.
We ADORE the colour. It’s very very pale. The grey changes a lot under different light through the day and I finding myself frequently going “god that’s great”. It’s quite a warm colour. The other grey in the image is the colour of our kitchen cabinets.

That Jo jos white looks perfect. How do I get the colour to get Johnstone’s to match?

Just been and picked up some tester pots and I think Jo jos white is a winner.

I do also really like rock salt, it is a bit paler, going to see how they look in various lights but I am definitely leaning towards Jo jos

thank you for all the recommendations!

That’s brilliant! I hope the Johnstones colour match is good, we’re really pleased with ours ☺️

Try Ammonite by F&B. It is not bluey at all.
Someone recommend Wimborne White but to me that's an off white with yellow tone - we have it throughout the hall and staircase and it's lovely but definitely not grey.

lol at all the different shades of grey and only one of them is actually grey (the Jo Jos in the middle)

I did take a look at Wimborne white while in B&Q and thought it wasn’t right so didn’t get a tester.
