Exterior paint colour match for facing boards?

[Gordopolis]

Hi,

I need to repaint my facing boards. They are currently the same colour (really dark brown) as my gutters and I want to paint them this same colour again.

However, B & Q and Homebase don't do colour matching on exterior paints.

Can anyone recommend a supplier who does?

Cheers,
Gordon

Just get some Dulux made up at a supplier who does a mix service eg B&Q!

B & Q don't mix exterior paints - I've checked

You can use any gloss for exterior painting. The colour is probably 'conker'.

OMG ever heard of Yell? You could always look on the Dulux website for sellers who provide a mixing service for this type of paint. Are you saying you have tried all paint stockists in your area? what about the Dulux centres? Other tailor made paint suppliers are available. http://www.dulux.co.uk/servlet/UKNearestHandler

Yeah, I wondered if you could use normal gloss for outside - cheers.
