That's a good idea. I was thinking of commissioning a Banksy mural but a plimsoll line and some ships would be a lot cheaper.

Tell us what size of paint brush and whether you plan to do two coats or only one. Also what kind of paint you are using. Some dry a lot faster than others.

Does cheap pound shop paint dry faster or slower than quality brands? Are you allowed to use them, or is Farrow and Ball specified?.

WHICH battleship grey*? Don't leave it hanging like that! It's doing my head in!

* UK battleship grey is different (darker) than US battleship grey.

PPS She's allowed to have maroon hair at school but not maroon shoes. Some school rules are bonkers.

A battleship grey colour chart so you can choose. It's very important to get it right.
