External Paint colours

Post by pseddon147 »

I'm visiting CVO again over the easter period and would like to paint the outside of my property while I'm there.
The property is over at Vale Do Milho/Clube Golfemar.

It's a kind of sandy colour but I haven't found any external paint of the same colour in Mestre Maco.

Can any body tell me where is the best place to buy external paint and what the actual colour is.

regards

Best place to buy paint is a little shop opposite the Fatacil in Lagoa called "CIN". Guy in there speaks very good English and is exceptionally helpful. They're not the cheapest, but cheap paint is a really bad idea - I know cos I learned the hard way.

Sorry cannot answer the other part of your question, but they can probably mix up any color you want.

Agree with e-richard, If you cant find cin go to Sullys and ask for Howards phone number I think he still owns cin & Sullys! We had ours painted a similar colour you can pm me if you want and I will give you directions to our villa so you can see it for yourself! I think we still have the colour charts as well

Thanks for the info guys.

CIN sounds like the place, I will give it a try.

there is also very good branch of spanish paint firm in lagoa..they have a far greater range of speciality paints and other items than cin...they are to be found by turning off at the 125 new rounderbout in lagoa --drive as if you were heading into lagoa city and they are on left about 600 metres from rounderbout - firm is called hiper tintas ..range of paints is by monto

just take sample of your old colour and they will match it up with their colour charts
