Hi all.
Looking at using farrow and balls Strong white modern emulsion but having seen mixed reviews I'm unsure especially with the price. I need a greige shade and colour wise that fits the bill exactly. Any advice on this brand or a colour match gratefully received.

We had f and b colours mixed in both crown and dulux and I'm happy with both.

I don’t rate farrow and ball, we got a large can of Strong White reduced at B&Q as the can was heavily dented so thought let’s give it a go, as heard mixed reviews like yourself. It’s thin, watery, you need about four coats even with a primer and it chips off very easily. The colour is nice, but for the price I would get Mylands (which is amazing) or Little Greene paint instead as they’re much thicker and easier to work with, more durable and their colours are just as nice.
