I was told by a colour consultant that surfmist will not work with Dune....But I am having second thoughts about it. Any advise or photo would be great.... Re: Does Surfmist and Colorbond Dune work? 3Jun 03, 2016 5:48 pm We have used Dune and Surfmist but not the way you are thinking of doing. Have you googled or tried Pinterest? I've seen a few pics on there with dune rendering and Surfmist, even fine colorbond roofing. I don't really see how dune won't work with Surfmist. Dune is browny grey and Surfmist is almost white. Re: Does Surfmist and Colorbond Dune work? 5Jun 27, 2016 9:00 pm I had considered that combination for my new house, but am now considering Evening Haze instead of Dune. To me Surfmist has a slight green undertone, same as Evening Haze. I have seen pics though on this forum of someone using Dulux Beige Royal (perhaps closer to Dune) with Surfmist. Re: Does Surfmist and Colorbond Dune work? 6Jun 28, 2016 6:45 pm Hi Italian Gal, I think Dune and surfmist would work well. Happy to help you out, Do you have an elevation plan? I could pop it in photoshop for you and overlay the colours. THis will give you idea how the colours would work together. Another note; Choosing Charcoal colour roof will add extra heat gain to your home, in such I don't normally recommend any black or charcoal colours. If you're in a cooler climate like VIC or TAS this might be ok, but in area's like WA QLD NT ect really hot extreme summers; this would add a lot more heat to your home. If you still wish to go the charcoal look at devices to cool the roof space down such as whirly birds, increase roof insulation r -rating, even consider a reflective insulation. Hope this helps, Regards, Melinda Re: Does Surfmist and Colorbond Dune work? 7Jun 09, 2019 3:26 pm Lincoln35_mckinley I'd love to know what window coverings you used in your house. We are looking at similar colours but I was still keen to have plantation shutters in some areas. This means white on black windows and I'm not sure how that will go.

Hi Julie 😀 We have used a mixture of sheer and blockout rollers plus plantation shutters. We have woodland grey window frames and I think it looks fine. I’ve posted some pictures for you to see.

The tones seem to work well together.

Is that how it looks in your home from the inside against white walls and the outside in the sunlight? I want grey not green. Thank you!
