Thought it very flat and slight green undertone. Nothing else

Perfect colour for complimenting white and black
This colour is perfect. Very muted pale yellow which looks perfect next to white and black. We looked high and low for this colour.

This colour is the perfect nuetral!
There's a real warmth to this colour, and it always looks different at various times of the day, but there's definite a green tint in it, which gives a unique depth.I liked it so much I used it in my front room & bedtoom..

Absolutely stunning warm neutral
Spent hours looking at different neutrals. We're so pleased with how strong works in our sitting room.

Amazing colour
We painted our south facing master bedroom and dressing room in String with an accent wall in Mouses Back around 10 years ago after taking advice from the Harrogate shop. String was a colour we would not have considered but we absolutely love it and have never tired of it. It changes hue depending on the light but always looks amazing, so much so that we recently repainted in the same colour. We have been using F&B paint for many years now and are more than happy with the quality and durability.

Superbe coloris
Ma fille a choisi ce coloris pour sa chambre. Il en émane une sensation de douceur, mais aussi de tonicité suivant la lumière extérieure ou l’éclairage ambiant.

Easy to apply and such depth. Love it
I am really impressed with this paint. It goes on easily and dries very quickly. I used it as an experiment to paint over a latte colour (I needed a quick fix) the result was a beautiful light sage green colour. I am so happy with it. It only needed two light coats. I have now bought loads of F&B paints to do the rest of my house as I was so impressed. Cleans easily, no odours too which is always a bonus. It costs more than many other paints but in my opinion the results are so much nicer. I have used Valspar (which I like) Dulux which I think is terrible. I would now rather pay a little more for the better qualilty.
