Browse Forums Finishing Touch 1 Feb 22, 2011 6:47 pm Hi All, Please forgive me if this has been already discussed but I have searching for hours to find nothing. I have grey walls that have a purple undertone (mistake no1 - dont rush paint colours!) My questons are: 1. What colours can i use as 'pop' colours that wont clash (i wanted aqua/turquoise) 2. What can i do to reduce the purple undertone without repainting 3. If i was to DIY art with more charcoal/grey tones will it make the walls more purple... The colour is Solver Murcury Glass. Pictures of the colour can be found in my thread but it doesnt really reflect the true colour. see what i can do as its rather neutral.
