In my opinion, F&B is not a superior product it’s the colours most go for, to save money I would recommend going to your local Brewers supplier as they can mix and match most F&B colours into Dulux / Albany trade paint in any finish ie Matt or egg shell etc."
"Farrow & ball are a great brand highly recommended"

Answered on 23rd Jun 2022 - Member since Sep 2021 - report"Over priced & poor quality compared to other trafe paints.
Has improved recently with the modern emulsion.
Never used to be able to touch up walls as it looked different to the rest of the wall .
Good range of colours bit usually colour match it with Dulux or Johnstones trade for a third of the price"
