ROSE TAUPE PAINT

Post by JiimyO »

HI there, could someone tell me if there is 2 different types of ROSE TAUPE PAINT?
As I have just ordered ROSE TAUPE and it is BROWN..
When I have read the info on the ROSE TAUPE paint it is supposed to have a hint of lavender in it, which looks like mine ..As said this paint is just BROWN Paint..Anyone have any info on this?////Thanks

SFAIK there is only one shade of Rose Taupe, and it certainly is not brown! It's very much a "marmite" colour (as in attitude towards it, not shade) but could be describe as sludge grey, grey with a hint of red, etc. Is your paint in a tin? Have you stirred it?

Maybe they didn't mix quite enough camel poo into it?

There are sometimes errors with the labelling of spray cans. I had some Smoke Grey which came out dark blue. The suppliers replaced it when I queried it with them.
