Exterior dulux house colour............Help??
Comments (3)Hello. we used Lyttelton by Dulux for a lot of our inside painting & it's a lovely soft grey that isn't too blue. We used Remarkables for a feature colour. It's a very dark grey so we used it sparingly. For the outside we opted for a dark grey with an even darker trim (sorry I don't know the names) we have rendering. but our inside colour would be worth a look. Our grey (Lyttelton) is warm & picks up the light well. We looked a t a lot of greys but some were too blue based or slightly too beige & looked a bit washed out in full light. I am in NZ & here you can order larger A4 sized colour sheets to get a better look. We also painted test pots on to a bigger area in a few spots around the room before deciding. Best of luck with the painting. Who knew there were so many colour options out there, we went a bit crazy choosing. In the end I had to narrow it down to my top 3 choices & stop looking....See MoreDulux Exterior Render Colour - HELP NEEDED!!!

Comments (0)Hi all, have been trolling though the forum looking for ideas and thought I would ask for advice. Basically we have a heat issue in our house, have done a lot of things to address is (multiple solar vents, window tinting, increase insulation and a new a/c). A lot of the problem is the current dark blue (I think it is Dulux Sharp Blue but we haven't been able to match it correctly). The paint is also breaking down on the N and W sides so the UV protection has basically gone all together. So we have decided to go a lighter colour and gray seem to be the logical choice. In preparation we organised to have the roof cleaned but was told the paint had also broken down, it was chalky and super-faded in areas. So we had the roof restored and sprayed with heat reflective paint (surfmist). We have all cathedral ceilings upstairs and the insulation between the ceiling and the tin is minimal. So we are planning on using the same heat reflective paint upstairs and then a dulux weathershield downstairs (not a lot of direct sun). We had a dulux colour consultant come in and we ended up with either Techno Gray or Spirit. We did large boards and after a few weeks I think we decided the Spirit is too blue (we're over it) and the Techno Gray is just too 'dirty'. We saw a house on the weekend that was lovely, was done in Shale Gray half. I went in for a sample pot and decided to also get Tranquil Retreat. The difference between the two was one drop of black (from memory). I'm also trying Miller Mood and Milton Moon (confusing). What I am most concerned about is the Tranquil Retreat looks stunning when there is a darker contrast with the roof. Given we are pretty much surfmist everywhere I'm a bit worried that it will all end up looking too pale. I don't want to go dark on the walls given the heat issue. Also have a driveway to play with, that will also be resurfaced so I can bring a colour element in there (hopefully) to tie it all together. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Comments (0)Please help! I have a glazed terracotta tiled roof which I can not change, we have silver travertine around our pool area abutting the house and are trying to decide on an exterior paint color. Do not want anything that throws pink, or is a dull clay/putty looking color. Travatine is a grey with swirls of beige. Looks very cool in this photo but there is warmth in the tiles. Grout is also a sandy beige color. Will be rendering as whole house is orange at the moment. Would like it to be serene. What would go best do you think? Thanks kindly!...See MoreItalian Girl
