I admit to this being a made up name from an old painter’s bill charging to ‘wash, stop and paint three times in oil’. It seemed an enticing way to describe a colour like washing up water, given that it is actually an elegant, subtle grey, with a touch of lavender. This multi tonal colour is made from a carefully curated combination of natural and earth pigments, a process which is kind to nature. We recommend using Wash Stop for walls or trim.
It is my first time to decorate my home, I wasn’t sure if everything would go to plan , we were impressed there’s almost odourless, my 3 year old was with me the whole day and was quite happy to jump in and paint with me. I was pleased to see how easy the paint can be wash off on her little hands. The result speaks itself, my room is now completely transformed, I will select more colours from Edward Bulmer when the house is done, their colours can certainly lift up the whole house, highly recommended.

Thank you for your wonderful paint. I can’t tell you how thrilled I am. Your Rose Tinted White is the most beguiling of colours – in fact I’d say it’s more of a mood than a colour! It’s warm soft,feminine without being sugary and the paint has a wonderful earthy, breathing quality which is magical.
When I arrived on site my client presented me with three tins of Edward Bulmer Natural Paint. Having never even heard of this product I was a bit dubious about the quality. However after painting for just a short while I realised that this product is pretty damn good. The paint is a good consistency, flows well with the …

We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.
Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.
If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
