Dulux Light & Space paint...

[crapcook]

Does anyone have this in their house?

My bedroom is dark - both in colour (the woman who lived here before us painted it dark red) and it doesn't get much light in anyway due to the positioning of the window. It has a bit of a boudoir thing going on and I want to make it a bit easier on the eye for potential buyers. We haven't been here long but want to move to a bigger place.

I want to make the room seem as light and big as possible and have come across this paint. I have tried a test pot but you really don't get the effect it is supposed to have from a little pot. Do you think it would be too much to have it all over the room?

I like the Morning Light colour.

have used this, am sure it was called this..
in living room (but lots of light)
it changes slightly through the day as thelight does
and i really like it subtle
we have coral pink feature wall and a grey
its very calm i think

but if its just to do that in dark room surely any light bright colour will make it look better for viewers..save it for your next place!

how on earth does it do it better than normal paint?

has light reflecting tiny flecks..

no, well, it might have.. mrs b
i dont really know
but tis nice

I don't know which shade exactly, but we have white Light & Space paint in our hall and all up the stairs.

You would assume it was just ordinary white paint - no glitter or special effects or anything. But it did brighten up our quite dark hall. Not a massive difference - it's not magic paint - but I'd definitely use it again.

We're going to do our back room in Morning Light - love it!

I think that is my mind made up then

I got the impression that it should only really be used for teeny tiny rooms that never get light such as studys, box rooms and the like. I thought it might have been a bit too stark in a big room but I'm going to go with it.

I will have to use something like this type of paint as parts of the walls in the bedroom above the picture rail are painted white and on a gloomy day it looks grey. Disgusting! On a good day it looks dark white. Not great either.

There's no question this paint works to open up the space, and to lighten it. I've used it three times now, and plan to use it again in other rooms.
