Woodies Paint

nellie07

Hi guys, I painted my hall a lovely grey colour called Ridge from woodies own range, now its discontinued, Im disgusted as I was going to paint the landing upstairs with it, its hard to describe, its grey/green/beige colour.

Im looking for something elegant and warm, so a warm grey would be great if anyone can help.

watching nevilles doorstep challenge last night has given me a boost to go and paint some rooms and refresh the place a bit!

Woodies paint is made by Fleetwood paints in Cavan.

Go to any Fleetwod trade shop and they will mix up a batch for you.

Fleetwood trade sell to the trade and the public too,and are cheaper than Woodies too.;)

My girlfriend painted the master bedroom in a lovely grey and redish colour.Its from Fleetwood Trade and its a soft sheen washable paint.We tried out several sampler pots,and then we went back to Fleetwood,who mixed up several 10 litres tubs of the various paint colours for us.

oh great Paddy thank you, so they will mix up the 'ridge' colour for me do you think? Will I need to bring the last drop of paint I have in the tin to them to know how to mix it? thanks for your help

If you have the last drop of paint then bring it with you.

They should be able to sort you out.

I use Fleetwod Trade Paint Centre in Finglas.:)

I was never into fish keeping,until I met my girlfriend.Shes big into fish keeping.
Now I love it,very relaxing and great stress reliever too.Large aquariams are actually easier to keep than small tanks,as the larger aquariams develop their own eco systems.

Glad to be of some help (hopefully).:)

My other half picked the grey from the various grey test cards.She picked out all the various colours.

All are Soft sheen and washable.

Ive attached the paint code for the grey she used.The grey is called "Nite 25".
