Does anyone know if it is possible to get a black paint (for rolling
not spraying) that has a slight deep purple look to it (like an
Aubergine - not the red/brown 'aubergine' colour normally found).
Basically a black with a hint of purple (like a real Aubergine?? I'm
trying to paint my boat this colour but cant find a dark enough purple.


Buy three tins of paint of the same brand... Blue, Red, Black

mix the blue and red together first 50/50 and then start adding the black
sparingly till you get the colour you require.
....or just go to a shop that mixes it for you. :-)
