Technical Advice

R Pro Decorators wants you to be happy with your chosen colour schemes. Its always good to not rush into decisions, we can arrange to have tester pots sent to you. Then you can look at the real colour. We advice to paint on to some clean card to get the best results or if you really want to paint the wall in a area, apply 3/4 coats from your tester pot. R Pro Decorators strongly recommends before the paint is ordered, to make sure you are happy with the colour you have chosen and would like on the selected area to paint as we want you to be happy with the finish colour result, as some colours may look different due to being painted on other substrate areas, lighting conditions etc. When choosing colours for the walls, be aware that colours on the corners of the rooms ,edging near where the wall connects to the different ceiling colour or skirting boards colour, can look different due to shadowing, lighting, reflections, texture of the wall or areas and also juxtaposition.
