Mouse's Back is a soft, quiet grey-brown inspired by the colour of the beloved British fieldmouse. It has a little green to it, which is especially prominent in rooms without much natural light, and works beautifully alongside other green-toned neutrals such as Lime White.

Product information

This zingy yellow has an undeniably nostalgic feel, partly due to its enthusiastic use in decoration in the 1960s, and partly thanks to its namesake, a home-baked favourite that's formed the centrepiece to countless celebrations over the years. Be bold and pair it with St Giles Blue or Charlotte's Locks for a mood-boosting retro look.

  • Surface Preparation - Before painting, all surfaces must be cleaned thoroughly and allowed dry fully. For most surfaces we would recommend using a dilute Sugar Soap solution following the manufacturer's instructions. We do not recommend using solvent based cleaning products as these may widely disperse the residue making water-based product application difficult.
