    Hi
    Last paint question...

    The paint that the paint shop mixes - how does that compare quality and colour wise to Farrow & Ball and Colour Trend. Is it worth the extra cost, does it depend on the room and room use. Any advice would be great thanks.

    Quality will depend on what brand of paint is used as the base for the mixed paint. The colour can vary slightly between 2 mixed cans but not so much that it would be noticeable to the eye. You may only notice it if you touch up a bit on a wall afterwards using a different can of mixed paint.
