Look at this old clip and the wall in the backround is the same colour as my cabinets  I was going for a stone grey that is fashionable at the moment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUfjm2_LORY&feature=related    Report

The previous owners had stripped all the lights,fittings,interior doors etc to start a refurb,then on one wall in the lounge/salon had painted multi-coloured strips to try and decide on a colour scheme.That was as far as they got.Some of the colours were so vivid I had to undercoat the wall with 2 coats before I could apply any emulsion or wallpaper.    Report

I don't know about the colour of the wall in the background Twinks but the youtube clip almost made me return my breakfast! Please, please next time you post a clip like that can you put a health warning with it? As the paint is new a chemical stripper should take it off quite easily. This might help? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGRMXsPhy4w&feature=fvsr John. Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today, it's called golf. http://s47.photobucket.com/albums/f180/Jonzjob/?start=all    Report

To be honest Twink, I thought the walls were ok, a lot better than the frocks dahling which were simply AWFUL! unlike the walls and frocks in AbFab PS you might just save the stone grey scheme if you can accessorize minimally the real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, and blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday    Report
