Cheaper alternative to FB Strong White? Pretty please?

I don't have much time and ideally need to go out and buy something first thing tomorrow. We are having a new log burner fitted and the new plaster will need to be painted before it goes in tomorrow.

FB is £45 per 2.5ltr, and i'm not sure whether it would be enough.

Thanks in advance.

We got it colour matched in dulux. Johnstone’s will colour match it too. I suspect anyone with a paint mixing machine will.

Try a decorator centre.

What would I need to bring in to colour match it. The booklet only Has such small areas of paint. I could paint something I suppose, I have a tester pot.

I know in the case of Johnstone’s you can literally tell them to mix up F&B strong white and hey presto. They have all the colours on file.

We have F&B strong white colour matched in Johnsons paint. I just asked for it & they had the code.

Go to the paint shed or similar and give them the colour number. You don’t need a tester pot just the number

Yeah. They all know what to input to match the super popular F&B colours. You don’t need anything for them to match against.
