We have plastered our lounge ourselves, finish is quite good for diy.
However choosing the paint was a big issue, wife wanted a light colour no dark ones, we settled on a very light colour leyland trade paint.
Bought one but it had a blue hue to it she said it was ok i said no way, after we slapped on 5 litres, eventually this was scraped, bought 2 test pots Misty Grey and Ash Grey.
Misty grey came out with a light burgundy colour and ash grey was ok but came out diff colour once painted over rejected bluish paint.
Bought the ash grey as did not fancy multiple trips with loads of testing pots, slapped 3 coats and wife is now happy with the light grey in soft sheen as its wipeable.
Googling grey colour comes up with lots of problems with Dulux Polished Pebble coming out in purple/blue, etc, what a nightmare.
