Help! 4Sep 03, 2009 9:58 am megzy Vid, we also have ironstone roof with Dune Render and we are really happy with it. This is some latest pics to show. Sorry no close ups but I can if you want. The house is too wide to fit in one shot Hi Megzy, Your place looks great, I wouldn't mind seeing a close up if it's not too much trouble. We are having a Tuscan Classic Cedar panel lift door, can I ask what colour yours is ? What we have noticed with the roof is that it looks like it is different colours at times depending on the sky, on a dull cloudy day it looks a bit silver and on a nice sunny day it's much darker, we are very pleased with the colour, originally we were going with BLACK but we are really glad we didn't now.

BuildingACT, sorry for seemingly hijacking your thread! Garage door - Yeah I think that is the one we have. I have a thread somewhere with photos if you wanna check it out. Ill see if I can get any good shots for you. I agree with you totally about the ironstone roof. Sometimes it looks blue othertimes it looks grey. WE LOVE IT!

I'm planning on going with a cedar (or cedar-look) garage door also, so great to see the pics! House looks fantastic! Re: What render colour with Ironstone roof? Best paint? Help! 7Sep 03, 2009 8:46 pm I love Cedar and dark greys together, maybe a lighter but not too light shade of grey. My daughter just painted a rendered wall with a Nippon paint called Footprint 2, it's a really nice grey. What colour is Nighthawk 3? Re: What render colour with Ironstone roof? Best paint?

We have all cedar windows, bluestone retaining/feature walls and will be having a grey/stone floor inside! I actually also got a Footprint 2 colour card...the Nighthawk 3 is quite similar - maybe very slightly darker..and with a slightly different tone - but yep, same sort of feel i think!!
