On all the stores we have visited, we can only get Dark Green, but we
want
Light Green.


Has anyone seen such a colour?

Dark green is all they do Mike, how about getting a tin of white and
mixing
the two for desired shade? As long as the white is also Hammerite it
should
mix ok but may need a little of their thinners to make it a little
easier.Of
course you would have to take note of the quantities if you wanted to
continually match colour.


If you ARE going to mix it, you might care to consider mixing yellow
rather than white, or a combination of the two, for a more
satisfactory result. This presupposes that Hammerite make a yellow, of
course.

Lime Green would have been a superb colour. Will look out for a tin of
Yellow Hammerrite

Thanks for tip
