Hi..! Just seeing if anyone can help me...have to choose my internal wall colour from the Solver Builders colour palette and want as white as I can get... I chose First Snow 6301...just wondering if anyone else has chosen this and how it actually looks on the walls! ...is it a nice white white?? don't want a yellowy white!!

Thanks!

We chose the same colour, but our house hasn't started being built, so can't tell you how it actually looks. You could possibly buy a sample pot from a paint shop and see how white it is.

You just inspired me to check our colours. We told our builder that we want WHITE white, and they said paper white (without even showing us the charts - stupid that we accepted it!! More worried about our external choice at the time because I wanted so bad to not have a yellowy toned beige exterior). We should have known not to trust what they said!!

A quick dash down to the solver paint shop to look at colours, and it definitely has a beige hint to it. It looks white when on its own, but you put something white next to it (ie, my kitchen!!) and it looks so brown! We've just emailed the builder asking if it is too late to switch to designer white. The solver people said that is their truest white, and it looks good against all of our selections.

If it is too late then it won't be a complete disaster, but it's still not what we were hoping for. It should hopefully look a little lighter over a large, open area.

Hi,
We have Solver First Snow as well! I really like the colour, but it's not totally white!
We didn't want any yellow or pinkish tone either, more a tiny bit of grey, and that's what it is. I don't have a picture yet, but if you want one, please PM me.
Good luck!
Bip
