I am filling some former screw holes in my window sill which is made up of tiles painted dark-red. Is there a good way to colour or to tint the filler itself to make it match the colour of the paint on the window sill. mix the filler with coloured emulsion. NT |

What is the best way to sort this out? You could use one of the pigments available for colouring limewash. Look up "lime putty suppliers" on Google and one of them should have it, or perhaps Anna Kettle can point you towards a source. |
