Money Saving Campaign - B&Q paint that they no longer stock

jdjones

I decorated my house with B&Q colours range paint that they no longer stock. I asked in store if they could mix some more of it but they can't unless I bring in a sample of wet paint. I've been in touch with B&Q support through the website - they tell me to ask in the store(!). It then occurred to me that B&Q could provide paint recipes for the paint they no longer sell ready mixed, as they have a paint mixing station in store. It would save me having to repaint the house when all I want to do is touch up marks here and there, would be better for the environment and better for the consumer pocket. It's in B&Q's interest to not do this so we all buy more paint, but given the cost of living rises I think this could help a lot of people. Would anyone like to help start a campaign?

Also, if anyone happens to know the paint machine recipe for colours range "antique white" or "cotton flower" please do share.

Did you write down the RAL number? Then you should be able to match the colour, however more importantly, what type of finish was it?

No idea what a RAL is, but I do know the finishes
