Satin paint in under half kilo pot

4 replies

luggageandbags · 11/02/2023 14:54

I would like to paint a cupboard and have fallen in love with a Farrow & Ball colour but their smallest size satin pot is 750ml. Edward Bulmer and Little Greene who have similar shade also seem to have 1l pots at a minimum.

It’s so frustrating, I think I will need 300ml at the very most so I’ll end up throwing the paint away, and it’s not cheap! Why do companies do that?!

Any recommendations for eco paints that offer smaller pot sizes?

Most of them will start at 750ml, not many do tester pots these days either although earthborn do but they are only 100ml

Fusion mineral paints are VOC free French eggshell made for furniture and come in 500ml - various stockists

Also Annabell duke vegan paint again made for furniture comes in 500ml but you will need to contact them directly atm as website orders are not working www.annabelldukepaints.com/product/ecological-eggshell-500ml/

Thanks @wonkylegs I wouldn’t mind buying several tester pots but they are usually in the flat emulsion which I can’t use on furniture.

will check out the recs thank you!
