Color Picking Steps
Effective color selection isn’t just about finding the right shade or complementary match. You must also consider things like lighting, finish, and wall textures. The experts at Imperial Painting will walk you through each of these crucial considerations to make sure your palette perfectly suits your preferences.
Lighting
The color you see on the walls is actually generated by the light that hits that object, so sunlight and lighting from lamps may create two different colors.
Paint Finish
The paint finish can also affect the color. The same color in an eggshell finish may appear as a different shade than in a satin finish. Because a sheen can affect the lighting so much, it is easier to match flat colors than glossy ones.
Cleaning Walls
Before we test the colors on the wall, we first need to wash the wall with mild soap and water, as dirt, grease and dust can change the appearance and color of paint, too.
Testing
We test the color match with real paint and wait for it to dry, then adjust if necessary.
