hiya

my LO just sprayed some juice on the wall. the wall is a very light beige colour (custom made). Being silly I rubbed it. Now it is a big mark there. I just wondering do you need to paint the whole wall or could do just a patch?

(it is not our house, that is why I am so worried :-()

Thank you

Do you have some of the mixed paint ?

If you do then all you need is a brush or a roller.

Thank you, they got some, do they have to paint the whole room? or just that bit?

Is it matt? The previous owners tried to patch some matt paint in our livingroom and its so obvious but it is a dark colour (soon to be rectified)

If its a small area then patching may be ok. If not then the full wall will probably need done.

It is mat about 10X10cm OMG :-(....... the whole wall or the whole room?

I would only do the one wall, should be enough, just don't be to heavy handed with the application. If its a light colour then by all means try patching, again be light with the application and 'feather' the edges. Might look ok.

Personally I hate matt paint, silk/soft sheen is easier to wipe down (a bit like my hatred of land lords and their obsession with cream carpets :mad:)

Roll a strip over the stain/mark with a rad roller ,will proberbly still show a bit If you can look along the wall with the light but will not be that noticable
