Patching cornice cracks. Repainting after gap filler. Tried Dulux white on white & vivid white, as seen in pic there is a blue tint & the repainting is obvious. Looking for a ceiling white paint just white, no tint, no shade ?
Hi @oasis1frog,
I'd suggest you try https://www.bunnings.com.au/dulux-1l-white-ceiling-paint_p1370213 . It is a flat white paint that is typically what is used for ceilings and cornices alike.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks Jacob. The only issue is do you know if it's available in sample pot, normal size is 1L+, otherwise I will ask the nearest Bunnings.
The sample pots, regardless of brand, are almost always a low sheen interior wall paint. As this is a specialty paint, unfortunately, it wouldn't be available in a sample pot.
Unfortunately, you'd have to purchase the 1L tin.
I thought I should also just mention that it is unlikely that you will ever match the existing paint perfectly as paints discolour overtime, so fresh paint will likely stand out.
For this reason, it is usually best to paint the whole section, or in your case, the whole cornice, as you can guarantee that the colour will be the same.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
Thanks, understand it won't be perfect match. Will try dulux ceiling white.
