LRV here is calculated from the on-screen colour, so treat it as a guide. Screens shift colour, so always check a sample on your own wall, in your own light, before committing. We keep sample pots and hand-painted cards in stock.

See it against another colour

Colours look different depending on what sits beside them, so it is worth a look on more than one. A sample pot on your own wall will tell you more than any of them.

Goes Well With

A scheme built around Air Force Blue

Four shades chosen off the colour wheel: a light companion, a deeper relative, a next-door tone and one accent. All of them are on our shelves.

Close Matches

Similar shades across all three brands

Ranked by how close they actually are to Air Force Blue, useful if you’re matching existing paintwork, or want the same look in a different range.

Paper & Paint

Papers that work with Air Force Blue

Every colourway we stock, scored against this colour. These sit closest, and each one has Air Force Blue, or something very near it, somewhere in the pattern.

These pairings are worked out from a photograph of the paper, so the printing, the lighting and your screen have all had a go at the colour before you see it. Treat them as a shortlist worth sampling, not a decision. Bring the paper and a sample pot together in the room, in daylight, before you commit.
