Dulux equivalents for F&B

7 replies

sleepcrisis · 23/04/2013 12:56

Am hoping someone can point me in the direction of a Dulux equivalent of Pavillion Grey and also Skimming Stone.

In return I give you Dulux Trade Quartz Grey, an almost totally identical and lovely Cornforth White. Many hours spent finding that one.

I could take it to be colour scanned, but have found its never that accurate and also I would rather just order a sample online!

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried Johnstone's paint instead of Dulux? My decorator recommended it as they'll reproduce F and B colours. I used it and was really pleased with the finish and cost saving.

Not heard of Johnstone's. As good as F & B?

Thanks for the tip but we don't have a johnstones dealer here, can only really get f&b, dulux or crown. (Not in UK)

There's a dulux heritage range of paint (which you can get with a chalky finish to it). You might want to look at the colours on there.

Yep that's where I found the Cornforth White lookalike. But they don't have anything like Pavillion Grey... am also on the look out for something identical to Down Pipe!

Can't help with PG or SS, but Dulux Clouded Sky (Authentic Origins range) is very very close to Borrowed Light! Grin

Have tried Little Green Paint Company (usually found in Brewers) similar colours to F&B, but much, much better quality paint.
