Hi everyone 

I am repainting the outside of my home 

I have managed to match up really well the original colour of the walls

But now I want to know if there is a specific name for the orange colour that typically edges windows a balastrades

I had some paint made up in the uk but it’s just not quite right 

I am hoping someone can give me the colour name 

Many thanks and keep safe ever

If you live on a community then the president and/or administrator will have the colour code. If not take a photo  of the area and a close up and show to one of the paint shops in the area. There’s Quesada Colours by Quesada Fish & Chips or the paint shop next to Lumsdens Auctions in Formentera.

I wouldn’t recommend using U.K. paint on any exterior walls/grills etc. as it won’t contain the same UV protection qualities as Spanish paint and you’ll end up painting every year.
