I bought a new house 6 months ago and we had a few chips in the paint around the kitchen, so I touched them up with an existing tin of paint that the previous occupants had used to decorate and were kind enough to leave.
However, upon applying the paint and letting it dry, it appears to be a different colour as the photos demonstrate - I'm now left with patches all over the walls. I think the issue is that the paint left in the tin was the dregs and it may have separated possibly causing the colour difference
I have the original tin but can't seem to find anyone that stocks the same paint.
My question is, would "Overtly Olive" be the same colour regardless of the paint manufacturer? B&Q stock it but not sure if I will have the same issue with their paint
Thanks for your help in advance!
