What strength? other? 11Mar 23, 2011 8:15 pm It sounds as though you've ruled out White Duck as an option but if you're still curious I've just uploaded some photos in my thread ph 14..... viewtopic.php?f=31&t=36986&p=690726#p690726 I've taken photos mainly to show the flooring and feature walls but there are also photos that show the white duck that you can see on the other walls (Where white duck is used it is mostly half strength. My kids rooms are 1/4 strength and the ensuite and bathroom are full strength) Re: Dulux White Duck - is it too grey? What strength? other? 12Mar 24, 2011 12:56 pm We've used Dulux Limed White throughout our house - half strength in the public areas and full strength in our bedroom and my office. I like it with our merbau timber floors so I imagine I would like it with cedar window frames. I think it is more of a stoney-grey compared with white duck which has slightly greener undertones. Limed White might give you more of a warmer feel because of that while still being grey IYKWIM? Best to get a couple of sample pots and paint some big sheets of corrugated cardboard - that way you can move them from room to room to see what you think. Re: Dulux White Duck - is it too grey? What strength? other? 13Mar 25, 2011 6:29 am thanks for responding Miss - love your colours and the house size! The pink will be just awesome and I love it with white. Our painter started yesterday and is going with 1/4 hogs bristle in kids bedroom - still to decide on one child's feature wall - the other is orange/yellow stripes! Believe it or not, looks fantastic with the right shades. Might show other daughter your pink wall and see what she thinks. We have a lovely painter who said if I don't like the color of these rooms when done we can change. After seeing your photos I am still loving the white duck. Shall see by the end of today.

It is so hard to make decisions as we ar doing it all under the pump as our house sold in 3 days - we thought it might take months - this would have given us heaps of time to get our new house renovated more slowly. As it is, we have to be out on April 30 so that leaves us 37 days to do everything! Re: Dulux White Duck - is it too grey?

Re: Dulux White Duck - is it too grey?
