Blue ,not grey

I have just bought a tin of Coastal Grey matt emulsion and when it's on the wall it's actually blue . I am very disappointed with the colour and now need to buy more paint as my hallway looks like a 1970s bathroom .
I have worked mixing vehicle paint in the past and there's no way a garage would've accepted that as grey to spray a car . I really think it would be useful if I could add a photo to this review to show you what I mean

Query about exterior paint finish selection

I called Dulux for advice on what products to select for painting a composite door. The advice given by Dulux representative, Kiran Dhillon was excellent. She listened, understood our query and gave the exact advice we need. She had a very approachable telephone manner. Reinforces my trust in Dulux as a company and confidence in continuing to specify their paints.

Bought a can of sapphire salute Matt emulsion from B&Q only to find that Dulux had put the wrong shade in the can. Then travelled to Wickes only to find that their paint was the same as the B&Q e,g. The wrong shade. Obviously a whole batch of the wrong paint has been delivered to the Grantham area. As we are limited in our DIY stores available I am stuck and will have to find a different make as darent order online as can’t be sure as to getting the correct shade

Purchased a tin of so called satinwood quick drying, have put Three coats on an already White door and it still needs more Coats, worst paint I have ever used.

Was in the Trade years ago, this should not be sold.

Delux was a good name in paints.

Dulux store in Long Eaton

Dulux store in Long Eaton

Went for some advice today, was served by a man who was passive aggressive from the beginning as I was looking for advice, several sarky comments from him including ‘I can see I’m wasting my breath here’
A really upsetting experience. Thank god I didn’t purchase anything.
